Pretty sure also that LA smog has gotten better (or at least flattened) and is not getting worse due to emissions restrictions etc.

i was recently watching an interview with an established music producer from LA who said he had lived here for 10 years, moved away for 5, came back and was surprised to actually be able to see the mountains surrounding the city, having not even known they were there before... he obviously didn't get out much to not know there are mountains north of LA, but it is an example on how far LA has come in terms of reducing emissions.

mm,
Everything said in this thread is true to some degrees. If your gf is willing to drive 20 mins each way to school I will agree with LSF about living in Venice. You can't live without a car but it would be such a pain in the butt.

I've lived in westwood for almost 6 years now. 4 years undergrad at UCLA + 1 year masters + almost 1 year working.

My roommate from my 3rd year and old high school buddy is finishing his first year at UCLA med school right now. He lives with his long time girlfriend near Hilgard and Le Conte in Westwood, which is like a 5 minute walk from his classes. Pays around 1200 for a cozy 1 bedroom. I live in the westwood north village, and my roommate and I pay 1900 for a 2 bedroom. We found these places on www.westsiderentals.com, which I highly recommend. We just used someone else's account who signed up already, but it's well worth the 60 bucks.

I also know several grad students living in the grad student housing in palms. They take the bus or bike to school and seem to enjoy saving the couple hundred bucks in rent each month. I also know a few grad students in the westwood housing which is more expensive, but quite nice and obviously very convenient.

DN,

By the time you've made it to the 405 you've already gone way too far. I won't cross La Cienega.

Eastside represent booyashaka!

Woooo! Haha but... the beaches of Malibu... they are over there...

Actually - I've grown to like the West Side also. This is the yuppie part of me that gets a little sick of the hipsters all over the place. Also the air is better there.

Guys,

All my life I've been searching for a purpose, and I think it might be to post in this thread. Let me give it some thought.
