Here are Southern California's median home prices by county, according to new data

Summary by The Los Angeles Editorial Desk · Based on reporting by Alexa Mae Asperin, FOX 11 Los Angeles (KTTV) · July 21, 2026 · 1 min read

California’s median home price pulled back in June after setting a new record in May, though it remained above $900,000 for the third consecutive month.

Why this matters in The Los Angeles

The recent dip in California's median home price, while still above $900,000, has implications for Los Angeles County's affordability crisis. As the county continues to grapple with rising housing costs, this slight pullback may not bring significant relief to prospective homebuyers. The fact that the median price has remained above $900,000 for three consecutive months suggests that the underlying factors driving up costs, such as limited inventory and high demand, are still at play. This trend is likely to continue affecting the local economy, as high housing costs can influence decisions on where to live, work, and start businesses. Los Angeles residents and policymakers will be watching to see if this dip is a temporary correction or the start of a more significant shift in the housing market, and how it will impact the county's ongoing efforts to address affordability and provide more housing options.
