Westwood Demographics

Westwood skews young, international, and highly educated — UCLA keeps the neighborhood’s median age in the early twenties, and roughly two-thirds of residents rent. Look closer, though, and Westwood is really two markets: a student- and faculty-driven rental core around the Village, and an affluent ownership market in the Wilshire Corridor high-rises, Little Holmby, and Westwood Hills, where established professionals, physicians from the nearby medical centers, and downsizers settle in. The neighborhood is also home to one of the largest Persian communities in the United States, centered on Westwood Boulevard. Data provided by the U.S. Census Bureau and WalkScore.com.
