"L.A. is America’s Dream Factory and the
creating of that fantasy rubs off on its citizens actually
here. Take the base of the American spirit that anything is
possible, add in the belief that life is like a movie and add
lots of sunshine – you can reinvent yourself and anything is
really possible. No matter what your nationality really is –
you too can travel halfway around the world to win an Oscar®,
live in Beverly Hills or come from a small Austrian village
penniless and become governor of the state.
The city has everything – whether you’re jet set, roughing it
or in between – it is ALL here. L.A. is cosmopolitan, quaint,
crazy, quiet sophisticated, down-home and everything in
between. It got riches and poverty – sometimes only blocks
away. You can have and see it all.
L.A. is all about the neighborhoods (though
some are technically cities) – some are world famous – BEVERLY
HILLS, HOLLYWOOD, UNIVERSAL CITY, MALIBU, SANTA MONICA, VENICE,
BURBANK, SAN FERNANDO VALLEY, PASADENA, CENTURY CITY, SOUTH
CENTRAL (now SOUTH LOS ANGELES) – including world famous
streets such as SUNSET, MELROSE, OLIVERA, RODEO, SANTA MONICA,
MULHOLLAND and even infamous such as FLORENCE and NORMANDIE.
And these are just the world famous ones – there are literally
hundreds of other cities, places and streets equally
interesting."
