Great Location

Located about five miles from Downtown Los Angeles, East Los Angeles is one of LA’s oldest and most influential communities. East Los Angeles is credited for housing Chicano political demonstrations and helping shape the unique culture SoCal is known for. Although the area is undergoing redevelopment, the community’s roots are preserved throughout town through special events, shops, restaurants, businesses, and more. Praised across SoCal for authentic eats, be sure to grab an authentic elote or bacon-wrapped hot dog from a street vendor or local restaurant! Similar to other California towns, the rentals here tend to lean towards the high end, but the price tag is worth it. Along with being surrounded by culture, East LA has several amazing parks, a large commercial center, and access to iconic beaches like Manhattan Beach and Santa Monica. The area is also convenient to California State University, Los Angeles.
