I've lived in three areas in LA -- Hollywood, downtown and Marina del Rey. I walked all the time, to most of the places I needed to go. I currently live next to a Ralph's, with another Ralphs, Gelson's and Pavilions within 0.5 miles. Plus tons of restaurants, banks etc. And between Uber/Lyft and the Metro Rail, I can get anywhere.
- seanmcdirmid 10y agoI live next to a Trader Joe's, target, and Ralph's in Westwood. It is also two short blocks away from where I work. I pay money for that, but damn is it convenient. I have to remember to drive my car every so often so the battery doesn't drain completely.
- Baeocystin 10y agoI use one of these plugged in to my car's always-on cigarette lighter. It works. My battery is never flat, even if I don't drive for a month or two. http://www.harborfreight.com/15-watt-solar-battery-charger-68692.html http://www.harborfreight.com/15-watt-solar-battery-charger-6...
- mmjaa 10y agoLived in LA for 15 years, Los Feliz area. For most of that time I didn't have a car - I just walked. The weather was always great, Ralphs close enough, Trader Joes, and so on. When they opened the subway, it was almost perfect - would've been better if it actually made it all the way out to the beaches from down-town. LA truly is a beautiful city if you take the time to check out the non-tourist areas. I'll always remember the delightful, warm purple afternoons in Silverlake and I'll always have a bit of LA with me wherever I go.
