Brentwood
Another Los Angeles neighborhood that sees its fair share of celebrity homeowners and hangers on is Brentwood located just off a stretch of Sunset Boulevard. Infamous for the debacle that is O.J. Simpson and the location of the home where Marylyn Monroe resided until her untimely death, Brentwood is another high-end community catering to Los Angeles' rich and famous. Like it's counterpart Bel Air, this neighborhood is a magnet for those seeking elite real estate and is defined by the cumulative wealth of its existing residents. Several smaller districts make up the larger Brentwood area including, but not limited to, Brentwood Park, Brentwood Flats, Mountaingate, and Bundy Canyon.
Well-manicured golf courses are a particular attraction of the area as well. Boasting quality greens and links that entice the casual member and pros alike, these private courses are a source of pride for the city. As part of its park and recreation initiative, the city also takes great care to ensure the vibrancy of the community's natural resources. It is equally important that summer-long events such as Starry Nights, which includes car shows, plays, movie screenings, and musical performances, are open and enjoyed by all.
A steadfast dedication and pursuit of the preservation of the arts also greatly speaks volumes about the nature of life in Brentwood. Once the beauty of the natural resources has sunk in, take a trip to the local independent bookstore or drop into the local grocery store for a chance encounter with a star or two as you sort through the week's shopping list. Brentwood Village should also be able to fulfill whatever shopping needs you might have on a daily basis.
