What does A.I. say about Hawthorne?
Hawthorne offers an interesting option for moderately priced living situated somewhere inside California’s Los Angeles County featuring medians hovering around the mid-$500s and rental rates shortly arrive close by upwards of 2.5 thousand dollars respectively - both markedly lower compared to other beach side cities like Manhattan Beach or Redondo Beach located much further westward. Grocery stores also stay completely equal with US figures thanks largely to local taxes & regulations while sales tax totals out unchanged at no less than 9%.
