Hello everyone,

Can anyone provide some insight to living in Pasadena? I am currently living in the Palms area of West LA and although I have lived here for most of the past 20 years I find that I am becoming less interested with the beach and expensive areas which surround this area. I would like to find a nice area that has an urban feel but yet does not have the pretentiousness of the areas surrounding Palms ie; Century City, Westwood, B Hills, etc). Living on the westide has it's benefits such as perfect weather and having beautiful surrounding areas but Palms itself is where I live and it is very depressing. Would like to find a place such as Pasadena where I can walk down the street and see nice housing, shops, restaurants in a clean environment.

Pasadena is also a bit expensive but nothing like Beverly Hills\Century City. It's a nice area to live in due to good transportation\ nice downtown\ things to do but it is quite a bit hotter than the Westside during summer.

Pasadena is very beautiful, and definitely much less pretentious than West LA. Of course you are aware of the summer heat...

Pasadena is a very nice, wonderful place to live. It has some of the most beautiful homes in California, large lots, good shopping, restaurants, and lot's to do.

If you are looking for a house to lease I know of one that is nice for only $1900 a month.

If interested, give a shout out!
