Creator's Key Takeaways

One of the questions I get over and over again is, "Chris, I'm coming to Los Angeles. Where should I stay?"

I also told you some places you don't want to stay. And I'll give you some cons almost to every area that I'm going to talk about.

Now, a tip that I would give right here off the bat is actually consider breaking up your LA stay into multiple different neighborhoods because it is so big.

Unfortunately, the homeless population that's overtaken LA has overtaken Santa Monica, too. So lately, uh, it is not as nice as it used to be.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Consider breaking up your LA stay into multiple different neighborhoods because it is so big.
Stay close to the water in summer for cooler temperatures.
Use public transit to avoid traffic and parking costs.
Avoid Skid Row in downtown LA.
Stay in Santa Monica for beach access but be aware of homeless population.
