Now this is a serious question.

As an isolationist, I'd like to live somewhere in the Pacific area of L.A. where no one would bother or try to befriend me. No nosy neighbors, judgmental people, or anyone trespassing on my turf. There's not a whole lot of people I trust enough or willing to be friends with. Besides, I can't relate to most people.

The Pacific area's one of my favorite areas to hang out. How do I deal with the public? I just stick to myself and not be friendly with anyone. It's hard to make friends in L.A. anyway.

Which communities in the Pacific area would private homes most likely be located?

Topanga and Malibu

Wow. How about an abandoned oil rig?

And why would one who can't deal with humans want to live in such a densely populated place?

The most isolated place in LA while still being in LA is Rolling Hills

Where is the Pacific area of Los Angeles? I've never heard that before. Rolling Hills and Malibu are quite a distance from each other - are they both in the Pacific area? You hang out in both places and everywhere in between?

Live on a sufficiently large lot size and have a fenced front yard with electric operated gate. Just ignore any neighbors that may try to say hello and you should probably not get very much interaction.

The Pacific region is in the City of Los Angeles, south of the 10 Freeway. Venice, Westchester, PDR, Del Rey, and Mar Vista.

The westside's not exactly a "private" region and won't have what you're looking for.

PDR has a more secluded feeling than those other neighborhoods and comes closer to what you're looking for but I still don't think it's what you'd want. It's not AS private as Topanga or Malibu.

In short, probably forget about the westside. (I've only heard the term "Pacific Region" specificially applied to ONLY that part of the Westside in the context of the LAPD's Pacific Division, which used to be called the Venice Division.)
