Is Burbank a good area?

Yeah traffic in Burbank is "terrible", by Alabama standards! As someone who just moved to Burbank from the East Coast, I have to say that traffic around here is an absolute breeze, especially when compared to LA. The biggest problem with driving around Burbank isn't the traffic - it's the fact that none of the traffic lights are coordinated!

I work in Burbank and overall it's a very nice town. I would stick to the foothills if possible or near the studios.

I lived in Burbank north of Glenoaks, within walking distance of what was then the Media Center mall, in the early '00s. Ups: Liveable, reasonably safe, accessible. Downs: Very hot in the summer, dullsville.
