    "We moved to this neighborhood as a predominate work-from-home location. It’s a good community with lots of lot space where even in heavy commuter traffic you can get to the west side in ~45 mins. This feels especially satisfying compared to further out communities that people go for similar space but require 1-1.5 hour commutes each way."

    "Neighborhood has yearly events, such as a holiday get together and the area draws a lot of people for Halloween festivities. There’s a number of young families that have come into the area in the past couple years and there’s good above average interaction and playtime amongst them, compared to other areas of Los Angeles from experience."

    "Van Nuys is a community full of wonderful people and families that appreciate their homes. Unfortunately, the city does not do enough to keep public area/settings clean nor well-kept. Streets are never cleaned, sidewalks dirty, roads/potholes are rarely fixed. It’s a shame to see how neglected this great city is. "
