Living in Los Angeles, CA: What you Need to Know Before Moving

Thinking About Moving to Los Angeles, California? Watch This First!

Is LA the right place for you? In this episode of my California Cities series, I’m taking a comprehensive look at the City of Angels from the beaches of Santa Monica to the hills of Silver Lake. Whether you're drawn by career opportunities in entertainment and tech or dreaming of that year-round sunshine, I'm covering everything you need to know about living in Los Angeles.

In this video, I’ll explore the real cost of living including housing, utilities, and daily expenses. I break down various neighborhoods across the city and talk about navigating LA's legendary traffic. You’ll also learn what to expect for commute times, the weather, and environmental factors like wildfire risks.

Of course, we’ll talk about real estate too. The median home value in Los Angeles ranges from $879,000 to $920,000, with average rent around $2,700 to $2,800 per month. It isn’t cheap, that’s for sure, but despite the cost, many Los Angelinos report being quite happy here.

Whether you're a young professional in entertainment or tech, a family prioritizing diverse neighborhoods and lifestyle options, or someone seeking that quintessential Southern California experience, this video will help you decide if Los Angeles is your next home!
