Hip artistic enclave, more moneyed than poor now where poverty, commercialism and materialism meet to shock L.A

Small city of roughly 100,000 people that borders Los Angeles on the western side. People seem to think that Santa Monica is this bohemian paradise of a town, but, in fact, it's loaded with yuppies who take all the fun out of it. Many commonly traversed areas smell of urine, and there are homeless people everywhere. Parking is atrocious, the place is crowded as hell, and there isn't much to do except spend money, and go to the beach. Santa Monica is very overrated.

Place on the western side of Los Angeles that tries way too hard to be cool, hip, in, etc. In reality, Santa Monica consists of yuppies and young professionals. Santa Monica's coolness is declining sharply as other areas in and around Los Angeles are becoming more hip.
Good luck trying to get parking in Santa Monica, beware of the urine smell that engulfes popular areas, watch out for trash on the beach, and give money to the droves homeless people.

A Santa Monica City College that boasts one of the best transfer rates anywhere in the country. It has the #1 transfer rate to UCLA and other UC schools compared to Los Angeles community colleges. Because of the high property tax, SMC is well-funded and has great programs, a fantastic and open campus, and a diverse student body.
