An affluent yet incredibly boring suberb in Los Angeles County located along the coast between San Pedro and Redondo Beach. Also known as "The Hill" or "The Bubble". Noteworthy for having no entertainment of any kind at any time, forcing inhabitants to drive to neighboring beach cities such as Redondo, Hermosa and Manhattan for nightlife, while hoping to avoid the loving embrace of the Palos Verdes Estates Police Department upon their inebriated return. Noteworthy for having the only 7/11 in the free world that isn't open 24/7.
I tried to wear a collared shirt and blue jeans to go to the driving range at Trump National Golf Course in Rancho Palos Verdes, but the guy in the Pro Shop told me they have a strict "No Denim" policy.

This community is wealthy and has a top rating for the public schools, but it is still one of the most bigoted and elitist communities ever. The people there act like they are against racism and care so much about black people, yet one of their high schools had years of racial incidents. The only reason why the high schools rank so well although there is a lot of work is because the parents pay for the best tutors for their kids. Most of the teachers don't contribute shit for either of the school's top rankings. And yet the school system puts so little value into mental health and more into the test scores they can show off to the rest of the country!
There is literally nothing to do here. All the teens like to do here is fight, party, and smoke and then just jump on social media when they get home, yet they still exclude people. This community is not like the rest of LA county. It's not diverse, there is very little to do, and it is it's own community. You'll have an easier time getting to know the Mexicans that don't even live there but commute there from other areas to do manual labor for residents and the schools there.

I grew up and lived in Palos Verdes. It was effortlessly easy making friends with people who worked for the residents there but it took more effort to make friends with my classmates. There was nothing to do but be depressed cause school was too hard and I wasn't included in the social scene.

I hate how people say how rich and snobby Palos Verdes is, it's not like everyone drives a BMW or Mercedes. Some of us have Volvos.

A small little hill located in Los Angeles County with almost no nightlife and excitement. It contains two high schools, Peninsula High and Palos Verdes High, which talk a whole lot of shit about each other when it comes to rivalry games. There are a bunch of dorky Asians at Peninsula high who study too damn much because they all want to be the next Albert Einstein. While Palos Verdes High, which has a bunch of spoiled white dudes and bitches who think they are the shit, show off to get attention all the time. Kids from areas such as Torrance, Harbor City, Carson or Inglewood talk alot of crap and always call kids from the hill of Palos Verdes spoiled all the time because their cities are too ghetto for a rich area like Palos Verdes. But Palos Verdes is not as rich as compared to some of the coastal areas in Orange County, such as Laguna Beach or Newport Beach.
Guy 1: Hey dude want to check out this rich city called Palos Verdes?
Guy 2: Dude, I've been there. It is so boring. Trust me.
Guy 1: We've been to almost all the best cities in LA and they are all fun though.
Guy 2: How about we can try out some cities in Orange County.
Guy 1: Okay, lets do that then.

The secluded and exlusive hill south of L.A. and the beach cities where you are noticed if you don't drive a BMW, Mercedes, or other car valued at $50 grand or more. We have huge mansions and have The OC constantly being filmed in or near our homes. Our crime rate is in the 10 lowest in the country, most of our parents are on the Fortune 500 list, and it's not unusual for us to be friends with certain celebrities or to be invited to awards shows or club openings. We have the beach, the city, the cars, the houses, gorgeous trust fund teenagers, and money...so yah it's alrite to be jealous of us.
Who are the hot chicks in the Mercedes CL 500 with the Chanel sunglasses and more Juicy Couture than Saks Fifth Avenue?---They're from PV man...everything's fine there

a.k.a. PV
1. a city where all the moms are PTA members and gossips with each other, and all the dads are in a biking gang. They all wear matching Live Strong shirts, biking pants, and helmets. All of the kids no longer drive Beamers and Mercedes because it is not the cool thing to do anymore. No, instead they drive raised trucks with refurbished sound systems bumpin some gangster/ old school rap because reggae just went out of style.
2. the "chill" school on the hill where students attend because Pen is too ghetto for them, or just has too many Asians. That's not to say asians aren't cool. It's just that it makes RICH white kids feel like the minority, and RICH white kids don't like to feel that way (actually, its usually just because of proximity or friends but definitely has earned the name chill school); Goes by the block system; hasn't had a fake bomb scare yet by fake arabs who think they are hard as opposed to Pen
3. gang sign associated with the Red Tide; not commonly used. Mostly by faggot freshmen who think they are better than Pen kids usually because they have no friends from Pen or just friends in general
