Also, I lived in Westwood for a bit (in the apartments on Veteran near Wilshire) and I noticed that people were reluctant about letting me into my building there at all hours of the day. Much more so than I've seen people be at my current place in Barcelona.

Yea people in LA can be really anal. I live in the college apartments so it's not that big of a problem but I'd definitely imagine so if you live around Wilshire (High-end apartments, I assume. Anything that's close to Wilshire adds considerable value to the property.) @%@^%##%^#%&#&#^ rent. I'm wondering why you're asking this question though. Did something trigger you (besides the girls) that made you make this post? Like, some homeless guy was sitting next to the door and wanted to come in? People that come to my apartment just come straight in right after me before i can even have a chance to close the door, which is why I held the door and let them in first. I'm actually curious about this question as well, and hopefully we can get some real responses anytime soon before I leave my apartment in couple of hours..

The past couple days I've let people in a few times, plus the thing with the girls letting me in. Also I'm in a foreign country and I don't really know the etiquette here, so every time I let someone in I think about this.

The New Yorkers should be on soon, I'm sure a lot of them will have an opinion on this.

i did at first, but that just encouraged this one lady from chinatown to annoyingly ring everyones buzzer to get into the building to get to our recyclables in the trashroom. i guess they get the deposit for the cans. and if no one answered the buzzer as became the norm only a few weeks later, she used to wait by the outside door and and soon as someone left, she made a sprint for the inner door before i closed. man was she annoying.
if there are two doors i don't feel so bad about letting people in, because in my mind they still have to earn their way through the second door.

I never let anyone else in. If i was going to do that i wouldn't live somewhere with a security system on the main or garage entrances.
