South Gate Homes for Sale & Real Estate

Although not one of the biggest cities in the Los Angeles County area, South Gate has still managed to make the headlines after being awarded the All-America City Award from the National Civic League. With 7.4 square miles it’s an integral part of the Gateway cities, which lie to southeastern side of Los Angeles.

The "Azalea City" as it has now come to be known after being unified on January 20, 1923, South Gate has a relatively small population of 94,396 people, who considering the small area they reside in often meet on South Gate's friendly streets.

South Gate Homes for Sale  Once being known for its cattle raising tracts, South Gate has grown into a small town with the much desired suburban lifestyle. The Tweedy Family was mainly responsible for the creation of the city and as such in order to remember them more fondly, the downtown business district has been renamed in their honor. A touch reminiscence of Mexico, the South Gate Real Estate pays direct homage to Hispanic culture and has sunny gates, low styled roofs and small gardens.  The average cost per square foot in South Gate is higher than the national average but the serenity and friendly community is well worth it.
