Welcome to Agoura Hills

Agoura Hills’ location provides unique advantages. It borders Westlake Village and Oak Park, but sits on the LA County side of the Conejo Valley making it popular with commuters and those who take the daily trek to downtown.  It has the quality of a small town feel with big city advantages. It often ranks as one of the best cities to live in Southern California.

Agoura Hills Lifestyle

Agoura Hills is known for its laidback lifestyle and scenic vistas expanding all the way into Malibu Canyon. Family events are a common sight here, like concerts and movies in the park. The annual Great Race of Agoura is a big day for this town with runners and families coming from all over to join in the festivities. On a quieter weekend, hiking and biking trails are plentiful and kid friendly parks are in ample supply.

Agoura Hills Housing Style

Most of the homes were built in the 70s and 80s and range from entry level condos to some of the finest estates in the area. You’ll find a wide range of floor plans and designs with exterior architecture that was common at the time Agoura Hills was developed. Many homes have undergone substantial remodels with the latest styles while other homes are in need of an update.

On the price spectrum, Agoura Hills is on the higher side for the area, but it’s not the most expensive. You’ll often get a little more house and yard for your money in Agoura Hills compared to Westlake Village and Oak Park.

Things to Keep in Mind

It’s warmer in Agoura Hills compared to the rest of the Conejo Valley. Not 20 degrees warmer, but often as much as 10 on some summer days.

Many of the shopping centers look dated and can use some TLC. Agoura Hills has fallen behind Westlake Village in the town center department. When it’s time for a nice dinner and some nightlife, you’ll likely make the drive to neighboring areas which are only a few minutes away. Good news though, there are plans to build a new “Agoura Village” that’s got us all pretty excited.
