#HousingatLA
Decide a budget
-less than 400, shared with a few people
-greater than 750, single room
-shared upscale living 900-1100 (Lorenzo, Gateway, Icon Place...)
-Individual apartment 1500+
Usually you pay separately for Utilities (Water, Electricity, Internet, Cable) varies from 80-150$ a month per apartment. Housing prices are fairly stable +-100, you could find a great place at very cheap rates or pay outrageous rates for a dump. The above are mainly right next to USC. Call on lady luck. Location and price are interrelated. Craigslist is the Housing bible of LA. Also ZIlliow and other sites.
Decide a location (close to/far from; I prefer as close to Uni as possible), furnished/Unfurnished, check-out places, talk to people, then decide. If you are not sure you can come here and find a place, please don't sign shitty deals from home.
Ellendale is mini-Indo-China and considered super secure, but I think its over rated. Off Figueroa is commercial and fun, South Vermont is quiet but sketchy. Lorenzo is in a sketchy area but like freaking palace. So make decisions based on your preferences.
Happy home hunting.
BTW I'm new too so asking: Neil, Is 1699 Hogwarts a good place to live, may not get you the ideal answer! By the way if any one from USC Cinematic Arts, Undergrad, screenwriters... looking for a fully furnished room in a 2BHK bang opposite USC, message me. Cheers!
