Of the Ventura County communities publishing a June 2026 median, Westlake Village is the highest at $1,490,000 across 24 closed sales.
What the ranking does and does not tell you
This ranks citywide medians among the communities that cleared the twelve-sale floor in June 2026. It is not a ranking of the most expensive homes — individual sales run far above any citywide median, and several Ventura County communities withhold a median precisely because their ZIP spread is too wide for one number to describe. The full picture is on the Ventura County roll-up.

How to read the withheld rows
7 of the 16 communities publish no citywide median this month, and the reasons are structural rather than missing data. Below twelve closed sales, one transaction moves a median more than the market does — a single estate closing or a single distressed transfer would swing the published number by six figures, which is why the count and the range are the honest publication. Where a community does clear the floor but its citywide row is an unweighted average distorted by one thin ZIP, the same logic applies at ZIP level and the guide publishes the ZIP table instead. Each withheld row above links to the guide that explains its own case, with the counts.
Why this ranking is built the way it is
Rankings of this kind usually average whatever numbers exist, which quietly weights a one-sale community the same as an eighty-five-sale one. This page ranks only communities whose month can support a median, states the sample behind each figure, and names the source and pull date — so the answer can be checked rather than taken on faith.
