  • Jgibson
    "I live in the La Crescenta part of Glendale and enjoy the quiet lifestyle away from the fast pace of LA. 10 minutes to downtown Glendale or Pasadena for entertainment but everything needed is available locally on Foothill Boulevard. People here care about their community and getting to know one another. Has that La Canada feel without the multi-million dollar price tag."
  • pwderu
