The median home in 90017 is valued at $708,900 against a median household income of $46,626, a price-to-income ratio of 15.2. That is above the 11.1 median across the 95 ZIP codes on this site and well past the 3.0 ratio that marks an attainable market nationally, which means a household earning the local median income cannot finance the local median home on conventional terms.

Unemployment stands at 6.2%.
With 19,234 residents per square mile, 90017 is far denser than the metro median of 11,522 (rank 7 of 95). This is apartment-district density: expect multi-family housing, transit access and little single-family stock.
