Studio City Filming Locations

Location Library

Studio City is where Hollywood shoots the suburbs. We represent 50+ film-ready locations on the quiet streets south of Ventura Boulevard: ranch homes, backyard pools, retro interiors, and the tree-lined all-American blocks that have stood in for the national neighborhood since the sitcom era began at the studio lots nearby.

The appeal is practical. The look is pure family-show America, the studio zone covers it, and the neighborhood has hosted crews for seventy years, so homeowners know what a shoot day involves. It sits one canyon over the hill from Hollywood, which keeps the company move short when a schedule mixes stage days and location days. Permits run through FilmLA. Send us the family the script describes and we will find the house they live in.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit to film in Studio City?

Yes. Studio City is part of the City of Los Angeles, so permits run through FilmLA. Residential shoots follow the standard notification rules, and this neighborhood has been doing them for seventy years.

What kinds of locations are in Studio City?

The American suburb, done properly: all-American ranch homes, backyard pools, retro interiors, and modern rebuilds on tree-lined blocks south of Ventura Boulevard.

Why do sitcoms and family shows shoot here?

The studio lots are in and around the neighborhood, so the location day and the stage day share a schedule without a company move penalty. The look has anchored family television since the format existed.

How much does a Studio City house cost to film?

It varies with the house and the footprint. Send an inquiry from the listing and we will quote your dates and crew size.

Are the homeowners used to productions?

More than almost anywhere. Many houses here have hosted crews for decades, and owners who list with us know what prep, shoot, and wrap actually involve, which shows up in an easier day.

What does Studio City double for?

Suburban anywhere: the Midwest cul-de-sac, the California childhood, the sitcom street. If the script says the family lives in a normal American house, this is where that house is.
