Located in the foothills of the Santa Monica Mountains, beautiful Bel Air is considered one of the most prominent, affluent neighborhoods in Southern California. From single family ranch-style homes to simpler two-story structures, Bel Air boasts some of the swankiest, most luxurious architectural examples in the entire country. Lush greenery, expansive yards and opulent homes characterize this lightly populated residential district. While there is barely any foot traffic throughout Bel Air, residents can explore the Hannah Carter Japanese Garden, inspired by the gardens of Kyoto, to enjoy an outdoor sanctuary. The city’s proximity to the 405 freeway makes it easily commutable and convenient to the beach cities. The prestige, privacy and unparalleled seclusion attracts well-educated and established residents with a high-income level.
