Living in Los Angeles offers a lot—the opportunity to engage with nature, to be up close with the entertainment industry, and some of the best dining experiences the world has to offer. Whether you’re looking for exclusive access to the movies you love or want to spend every day surfing—LA has it. The city is known for a lot, but one of the biggest highlights of LA is the diverse population and sprawling cultural landscape. From the glitz and glamour of Beverly Hills to Downtown LA to Malibu, there is an LA neighborhood for everyone.

When living in Los Angeles, there is always something to do. You can spend a night doing karaoke in Koreatown, hike to the Hollywood sign, or stargaze at Griffith Observatory. Los Angeles is also a very popular touring stop for musicians, so no matter how niche your music taste is, your favorite artist probably has a show coming up in LA. If you’re more a fan of visual art, take a trip to The Getty for 20th-century European paintings and drawings (amongst lots of other exhibitions). No matter what you love, you’ll always be entertained in LA.
