  • Trulia User
    "I grew up here with my grandparents. I have always felt at home here and I wish I could return to live here once more. But it's just way too expensive it saddens me to the core that I can't afford to live where I grew up. "

    "Echo Park might be the last egalitarian neighborhood in LA. Working class, hipsters, artists, professionals, Latinos, Caucasians, Asians, African Americans, Gay, Straight, dog lovers, kids, old, young.. I see all of them every day here. Echo Park is funky, artsy and a little rough around the edges. And what other LA neighborhood has TWO great parks (Echo Park Lake & Elysian Park).."
