Long Beach mortgage calculator
A median-priced Long Beach, CA home at 6.75% over 30 years, with California property tax of 0.71% and $1,600 a year of homeowners insurance. Every figure below is computed on our amortising engine — nothing is estimated in the browser.
$5,772 a month, all in
Principal and interest are $4,811; escrow and PMI add the rest. Over the full term the loan costs $990,302 in interest. Discounted at 5%, buying here has a net present value of $74,539 ($578,612 in today’s dollars).
Within California, Long Beach is 8th of the 12 California markets covered here, between San Jose at the top and Bakersfield at the bottom of a 3.96x spread. A state-level median hides most of that.
The price-to-rent ratio here is 20.6 ($824,250 to buy, $3,335 a month to rent), which is high. Renting and investing the deposit is a genuine alternative in Long Beach, not a fallback position.
Rents here are high relative to prices — a rent index of 1.15 against a price index of 1.05. That combination favours buying sooner, because the payment you avoid is larger relative to the price you pay.

Where these numbers come from
California medians come from editorial and are refreshed weekly. The Long Beach figures index those state medians to the local market, so they track the same feed rather than going stale. Insurance and the state income tax rate are editorial. Treat everything here as a planning estimate, not a quote.
