The week in Compton
What moved, what dropped and what changed hands in Compton, read the way an inspector reads a house.
The Compton file →The largest reduction on the desk was 2203 W 158th Street — down $180,000, from $850,000 to $670,000, listed by Century City Realtors.
15 listings changed status: 6 pending, 5 sold, 4 active under contract. The brokerage on every row below is the listing brokerage on the record, not ours.
9 homes came to market, asking from $599,000 to $1,358,888.
That is the week, address by address. What any one of these rows means for a house on the same street is the question the file answers next.

NeighbourhoodDowntown Compton
The city's business district thrived from the 1950s into the mid-1970s before gang violence pushed businesses out; it is now anchored by the Martin Luther King Jr. Transit Center and Compton station on the Metro A Line, which runs through the median of Willowbrook Avenue.
