The numbers
What Lompoc costs
Median closed sale price — Lompoc against the rest of the South County submarket and the county as a whole.
Rents: the 2BR figure above is an Estimate scaled from Rentometer’s June 2026 San Luis Obispo County averages ($3,058 house, $2,519 apartment). No public per-town rent source exists for this county, so treat it as a starting point rather than an appraisal — for a number on an actual property, ask us.
