Sherman Oaks

NEIGHBORHOOD OVERVIEW

Sherman Oaks is much like its San Fernando Valley neighbor, Encino: a quiet LA suburb that allows for city convenience with small town peacefulness. High-end malls and a smattering of hip boutiques and restaurants are a draw for the families who call Sherman Oaks home, and the neighborhood has a reputation for being part of the affluent area of the Valley.

A quiet suburb that allows for city convenience while affording small-town peacefulness. High-end retail and hip restaurants serve the professionals and families who call this San Fernando Valley community home.

What To Expect

Shopping, sunshine, and suburbia. This Valley enclave is known for its retail scene, with three main malls to choose from including the open-air Galleria. Local dining institutions—like Robbie Mac’s Pizza and The Local Peasant—line Ventura Avenue, providing residents with just enough to keep them busy in this quiet town.

The Lifestyle

Manicured and amenity-rich. Sherman Oaks has all the comfort and convenience of an affluent suburb—clean streets, upscale malls, and multiple parks make for easy living.

The Appeal

Access to familiar favorites. Chain restaurants and big-brand stores are far more plentiful in Sherman Oaks than the quirky, independent boutiques and eateries you’ll find in other parts of LA.

The Area

Nestled right at the convergence of the 101 and 405 freeways, Sherman Oaks’ location allows for easy jaunts to the west and east, or even further north to Ojai or Santa Barbara for a lovely weekend getaway..
