Median Permit in 91364: $4,880 on 79 Filings — June 2026

So what is actually getting built in 91364? Over the window of May 11 – June 9, 2026, this slice of Los Angeles recorded 79 residential building permits, and the honest answer is that most of them are not new construction at all. They are repairs and alterations to homes that already exist. The single largest permit type in the ZIP, Alteration & Repair on 1 or 2 Family Dwellings, accounted for 58 of those permits — the clear majority of everything pulled.

The dollars tell the same story from a different angle. The total declared valuation across 91364 for the window came to $1.5M, with a median permit valued at $4,880. That is a small-ticket median: it describes a neighborhood doing a lot of modest, owner-scale work — re-roofs, kitchen and bath remodels, electrical and plumbing upgrades — rather than a handful of ground-up builds. This post breaks down that mix, sets 91364 against its sibling ZIPs in the same metro snapshot, and explains exactly where these figures come from.

Every number here is a slice of the Los Angeles metro's sealed daily permit snapshot. A building permit is the municipal authorization a property owner must obtain before construction, alteration, or repair work that affects a structure can legally begin, and a sealed snapshot is a daily, content-hashed copy of that public record frozen at the moment it was read. We are looking only at the 91364 rows inside that larger metro file for the 30-day window.

What Getting Built Looks Like in 91364

The shape of the data matters more than any single total. A ZIP with 79 permits and a median of only $4,880 is not a development frontier — it is a stable, built-out residential area where the work is maintenance, modernization, and incremental improvement of existing homes. Below, the dominant permit type gets its own breakdown, because in 91364 it is not one category among several. It is the category.

Alteration & Repair: the 58-permit core

The raw source label for the leading category is Bldg-Alter/Repair / 1 or 2 Family Dwelling, which we surface under the friendlier name Alteration & Repair. In 91364 this single type carried 58 of the ZIP's 79 permits — the overwhelming share of all activity.

An alteration-and-repair permit on a one- or two-family dwelling is the workhorse of residential construction. It covers work that changes or restores an existing structure without adding new dwelling units from scratch: re-roofing, foundation repair, window and door replacement, interior remodels, electrical service upgrades, re-piping, seismic retrofits, and the conversion of existing space (a garage into a room, an attic into living area). In Los Angeles, this is the permit a homeowner or their contractor pulls when the house already stands and the job is to fix it, update it, or reconfigure it.

In 91364, Alteration & Repair (58 permits) is not the largest category — it is nearly the only one that registers at scale.

That concentration is the single most useful signal in this ZIP. When alterations and repairs make up that large a share of filings, the neighborhood is telling you it is renovating in place. Homeowners are investing in property they intend to keep, and the contractors winning work here are remodelers, roofers, and trade specialists — not tract builders. A low $4,880 median sitting underneath a $1.5M total is the fingerprint of many small jobs, with the occasional larger remodel pulling the total up without moving the middle of the distribution.

Additions and new builds: the quiet remainder

The display set names 91364's leading category and its count; the rest of the ZIP's 79 permits sit outside that single type. While this snapshot does not itemize every smaller bucket for 91364, the metro-wide pattern is the obvious reference point. Across Los Angeles as a whole, Bldg-Addition / 1 or 2 Family Dwelling logged 422 permits and Bldg-New / 1 or 2 Family Dwelling logged 359 permits over the same window — both far behind the metro's leading Bldg-Alter/Repair / 1 or 2 Family Dwelling total of 2,486 permits.

The table below sets 91364's leading category against the three categories that define the Los Angeles metro mix as a whole, so you can see how the ZIP's concentration mirrors the citywide pattern:

What that means qualitatively: additions (a second story, an extra bedroom, an expanded kitchen footprint) and genuine new-home construction exist in markets like 91364, but they are the exception. The dominant motion is improving what is already there. For anyone reading 91364 as a market, the takeaway is consistent — this is renovation territory, and the few larger projects that do appear are worth flagging precisely because they are rare.

ZIP 91364 Permit Activity, May 11 – June 9, 2026

The headline figures for the ZIP, every one of them a slice of the metro's sealed snapshot:

Read the table as a distribution, not a scoreboard. The gap between a $1.5M total and a $4,880 median is the entire story: dozens of small filings define the typical permit, while total dollars are lifted by a smaller number of larger remodels. That is exactly what you would expect in an established Los Angeles residential ZIP where the housing stock is mature and owners are upgrading rather than building anew.

How 91364 Compares in Los Angeles

A single ZIP only means something next to its neighbors. The table below places 91364 against other active ZIPs inside the same Los Angeles sealed snapshot and against the metro headline row. Every figure is drawn from the identical 30-day window.

Two things stand out. First, 91364 sits in the middle of this pack by permit count — close to neighbors like 91367 (90 permits) and 91335 (83 permits), and just ahead of 91604 (72 permits). Second, its valuation runs lighter than several similarly active ZIPs. Compare 91364's $1.5M total against 91367's $6.0M or 90039's $6.0M on comparable permit counts: 91364 is doing a similar volume of jobs at a noticeably smaller average ticket.

91364 filed 79 permits for $1.5M, while 91367 filed 90 permits for $6.0M — similar volume, very different dollars per job.

The outlier in the table is 90272, which posted 388 permits worth $66.2M — a permit count and valuation in a different league from every other ZIP shown. That kind of single-ZIP concentration is exactly what makes the ZIP-level cut worth doing: a metro total of 4,042 permits and $201.2M averages away how unevenly activity and dollars are spread across neighborhoods. For the fuller metro picture, see the Los Angeles building permit report for June 2026.

If you only looked at the citywide headline, you would never see that 91364 is a steady-volume, small-ticket renovation market while 90272 is something else entirely. The sibling breakdowns for 91367 and 91335 show how neighboring markets with similar volume put very different dollars behind their permits.

Methodology

The source for these figures is the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety via data.lacity.org (Socrata). The 91364 numbers are a ZIP-level cut of the same sealed Los Angeles metro snapshot that powers our citywide report — we are simply filtering the metro's rows down to this one ZIP for the May 11 – June 9, 2026 window.

All figures are computed directly from US Tech Automations' sealed daily permit snapshots; nothing is estimated, modeled, or extrapolated.

A scope note on what this data is and is not: Residential building permits (single-family and small multi-family); commercial and sub-trade permits are excluded at ingest. This is not a count of all construction permits issued in each city. So when 91364 shows 79 permits, that is 79 residential filings inside our defined scope — not the total of every permit type the city issued in the ZIP. This edition is also cross-sectional: it describes one window only, with no month-over-month or trend claims.

How the pipeline produces a number you can trust:

1. Collect. Read the public Socrata permit feed from the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety on a daily cadence, capturing the raw permit records as published.

2. Normalize. Map each record to a residential category, attach its ZIP and declared valuation, and drop commercial and sub-trade permits that fall outside scope.

3. Seal daily. Freeze each day's read into a content-hashed snapshot so the record cannot drift after the fact and any figure can be traced back to its source day.

4. Aggregate over the window. Sum and rank the sealed rows for ZIP 91364 across May 11 – June 9, 2026 to produce the counts, valuation total, and median shown here.

Because every figure traces to a sealed daily file, the same query run later returns the same answer. That reproducibility is the point of the sealing step, and it is what separates this from a one-off database pull.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is 79 permits the count of all construction in 91364?
A: No. The 79 figure covers residential building permits — single-family and small multi-family — only. Commercial and sub-trade permits are excluded at ingest, so this is not a count of every permit the city issued in the ZIP during the window.

Q: Why is the median permit valuation only $4,880?
A: Because most of the work is repairs and alterations rather than new construction. With Alteration & Repair making up 58 of the ZIP's 79 permits, the typical job is a modest home-improvement project, which pulls the median down even though the $1.5M total includes a few larger remodels.

Q: What does an Alteration & Repair permit actually cover?
A: Work on an existing one- or two-family home that changes or restores the structure — re-roofing, remodels, foundation or electrical and plumbing upgrades, window replacement, and conversions of existing space. It is the permit you pull when the house already stands and the job is to fix or update it.

Q: How does 91364 compare to nearby ZIPs?
A: By volume it is mid-pack, close to 91367 at 90 permits and 91335 at 83 permits. By valuation it runs lighter: its $1.5M total is below 91367 and 90039, which each posted $6.0M, despite comparable permit counts. That points to smaller jobs per filing in 91364.

Q: Who pulls these permits?
A: Mostly homeowners and the contractors working for them — remodelers, roofers, and trade specialists — given how heavily the ZIP skews toward alteration and repair. Genuine new-build activity is the exception here, not the norm.

Q: Can I trust these numbers later?
A: Yes. Every figure comes from a sealed, content-hashed daily snapshot, so the same query over the same window returns the same result. Nothing is estimated or modeled; the data traces back to the public Los Angeles permit feed it was read from.

Put Permit Data to Work

A ZIP-level permit read like this one is a working signal for the people who serve the neighborhood. A contractor qualifying 91364 sees a market built on alteration and repair and knows to staff and bid for remodel and re-roof work, not tract construction.

A building-materials supplier reads the same 58 Alteration & Repair permits as demand for renovation inputs and times inventory accordingly. A lender sees steady small-ticket filings and reads ongoing, financed home-improvement activity. A real estate agent treats a fresh permit as a pre-listing tell — a home being upgraded is often a home being prepared to sell or refinance.

The hard part has never been the public data; it is watching it every day, filtering it to the work you actually do, and acting before the signal goes cold. US Tech Automations builds the automation layer that turns sealed permit snapshots into routed leads: monitoring new filings as they post, matching them to your service area and trade, and drafting the first-touch outreach so your team works fresh signals instead of stale lists. You can explore the live permit corpus directly at permits.ustechautomations.com.

If you want permit signals like the 91364 read above wired into an outreach workflow your team actually runs, that is exactly what this layer is for.
