Torrance has an abundance of great parks but none really compare with the features and amenities of Wilson Park. It’s a sprawling patch of
beautiful green open space in the heart of Torrance and across the street from the complexes of Plaza Del Amo. Located at 2200 Crenshaw Blvd 90501 the aminities and facilities are as diverse as they come. About the only thing it’s missing is an aquatics center.

neighborhoods and communities. Prices range dramatically so it’s great to focus stats and trends on small parts of town as well as Torrance real estate in general. 2019 saw 96 “on market” home sales in the community of Old Town Torrance. This neighborhood has a charming historic feel unlike anything else in the South Bay. The median “list” price was $690,000 with the median home sale priced at $689,500 meaning that homes basically sold for full price during the year. This continued the trend of being a very solid “seller’s market”. Homes were on the market an average of 34 days before selling or going into escrow. The lowest price of the year was $255,000 for a one bedroom condo on Cabrillo with the highest priced sale of the year being $1,130,000 for a two unit property on Arlington. The majority of the home sales were single family homes and several were beautiful historic craftsman homes which is what makes this neighborhood in Torrance so special.
