What LA county neighborhood homes are priced at or near rental parity? (Los Angeles: apartments)

[composite]

I really want to move out of our rental, but most areas in Los Angeles County seem overpriced.

What, if any, neighborhoods in greater LA county are priced near rental parity?

Here is what you do. Take the yearly cost of rent for a home and multiply that X 15. If the cost of the home is less than that amount you come up with then it is better to buy. Homes in my area can rent for $1,800 or $21,600 a year and up. For a newer home like the kind we are looking to buy they can rent for $2,500 or $30,000 a year and up. The homes we are looking at are selling between $290,000 and $360,000. $30,000 X 15 is $450,000. That being the case it is better to buy. Maybe consider moving to Oxnard?

Thanks. If I didn't work near LAX I'd consider Oxnard. But the farthest west I'd consider is Agoura (and even that would be a hellish commute).

Getting home price info is pretty easy thru zillow or redfin. Is there easy way to find home rental prices throughout southern California?

the larger corporate apartment companies tend to list their availabilities at sites like rent.com. however, these apartments also tend to be more expensive than the average apartments in their respective neighborhoods. if you take off 10% or so, that should put you in the ballpark. if you're looking at houses, then you'll have to look at individual listings on craigslist. hotpads.com may also have some other filters that craigslist does not have.
