Anyone here familiar with the neighborhoods around LAX? Today i was basically offered a job out in LA by one of the engineers at my work. I would mainly be working at LAX and occasionally at HNL airport (Honolulu) so i would be living in LA.
I am not familiar with Los Angeles at all, but i would need to be out there in about 3-4 weeks from now, max. Can someone who is familiar with the area give me some tips on good neighborhoods to look for apartments in?
Im looking for a neighborhood that is A) fairly nice/low crime rate. B) not ridiculously expensive, so no Manhattan beach or Beverly Hills obviously and C) preferably within a 20 minute commute to the airport.
Thanks in advance to anyone that can provide advice. [/quote]

That’s weird because there was text there before. Ron must have deleted it a moment before I responded and I didn’t notice when I replied.

LOL people really dont read beyond the OP that often i guess.
Welcome to Taxifornia, gonna break it down for you…
The 405 Freeway is the end all be all of mother fuckers, where your car moves so slow it will grow roots. Be ready to spend ALOT of time in your vehicle. If you plan to drive anywhere on a holiday weekend, be prepared to get tooled in traffic.
Gas is $1 a gallon more than anywhere else in the nation.
Energy prices are around 30% more than anywhere else, that whole Green movement did nothing more than jack up the prices.
The weather is nice, the winters are in the 60’s, but the summers will get over 100 but dry.
The food is very good here, lots of diversity means dim sum, mexican, and sushi within a one block radius.
The area you are looking at is near the beach, I also think the recommendations of Long Beach are not bad considering the location.
You are not that fat from Gold’s Gym Mecca, in Venice, as well as Muscle Beach on the boardwalk. Might be worth looking in to.
I have traveled to a fair amount of the country, and other than Florida, I think Cali has some of the finest pussy the country has to offer.
