It is , by the way, a tiny neighborhood nestled in the hills on the eastside of the 110 from Highland Park and is essentially a community of condo complexes on Via Marisol abd Via Mia. It is In Northeast L.A., and is adjacent to the main entrance to Debs State Park, and the neighborhood of Hermon. It is bucolic and relatively quiet, and sits just across the freeway from Highland Park/hipster-central/restaurants, bars, shops, etc. It is 5-10 minute drive to DTLA (via the 110 or Huntington Dr), 30 min to Subset Strip at noon (an hour at rush hour abd 15 min late-night). <br />Monterey Hills is pretty, the air is cleaner and less dusty (I lived in Hollywood and Ktown for a decade combined) than in mid-city neighborhoods. Yes, there are less stores and shops to walk to than in Silverlake if you lice right off Sunset, but Silverlake ihas gotten pretty uppity in the last 5 years or so, and the stores and shops there have Beverly Hills price points and snobby attitudes. Highland Park has a greater variety of boutique businesses and an authenticity and sense of community that Silverlake lost in gentrification. My advice: Visit. Check out the neighborhoods. Find where you feel most at home, abd drive/bike/cab it to wherever you want to go out. L.A. Is huge...go out and explore. You might fibd you love Venice, or prefer the canyons, but you won't know until you check out the neighborhoods.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6468279200135971946.post-31513751608774394162012-09-17T20:21:39.819-07:002012-09-17T20:21:39.819-07:00huh. sounds to me like esb's usual gang.huh. sounds to me like esb's usual gang.

Its actually a surprisingly quick drive into downtown (15-20 minutes in the morning, longer at night), and it's outdoorsy and tree lined. North Pas, parts of South Pas and Altadena have lower home prices than you are going to find in Silverlake if you are looking to buy. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6468279200135971946.post-70825513923389957942012-09-17T14:56:57.687-07:002012-09-17T14:56:57.687-07:00@ Anon 8:23 Huh, I usually find a lack of self-awa...@ Anon 8:23 Huh, I usually find a lack of self-awareness more insufferable.
