A city in West Los Angeles,
home to Sony Studios, the Culver Stairs, and tons of traffic.
Although it used to have a reputation for being a dangerous city, Culver has reinvented itself and is now becoming one of the more desirable places to live on the West Side. Overall, it’s still a middle-class city, but many wealthier residents have began moving in and the rent is rapidly increasing.
Culver City is also one of the most diverse areas in LA. It’s home to snobby, predominantly
white neighborhoods like Culver Crest & Carlson Park, as well as predominantly Hispanic and
black neighborhoods of Clarkdale and Blair Hills, respectively.
Culver City
High School is the main
high school in the area, and is best known for having incredibly dirty bathrooms and a great football team (comprised of transfers who
don’t live in Culver).
There’s not as much to do when compared to places like Santa Monica or Beverly Hills, but there’s still a decent amount of attractions in Culver. Culver is home to a great night life
scene, wide variety of different shopping centers (all of which are impossible to find a parking spot in), the
Fox Hills Mall (a
popular mall with an unnecessarily large amount of shoe stores), the Culver Stairs (a crowded hiking spot with some of the best views of LA), and their very own Arts District.
All in all, Culver is a city that mixes several elements of LA into one. It’s still rather unknown, but could soon be one of the most hip places in SoCal.
