Brentwood Lifestyle
Brentwood is located at the base of the Santa Monica Mountains, bounded by the San Diego Freeway on the east, Wilshire Boulevard on the south, the Santa Monica city limits on the southwest, the border of Topanga State Park on the west & Mulholland Drive along the ridgeline of the mountains on the north.
Nearby neighborhoods & cities include Pacific Palisades on the west, Santa Monica on the south, West Los Angeles on the southeast, Westwood on the east, Bel-Air on the northeast & Encino on the north.
Brentwood, like nearby Santa Monica, has a temperate climate influenced by marine breezes off the Pacific Ocean. Residents frequently wake to a “marine layer,” a cover of clouds brought in at night which burns off by mid-morning. The topography is generally split into two characters, broadly divided by Sunset Boulevard: the area north of Sunset is defined by ridges and canyons of the Santa Monica Mountains; south of Sunset the area is relatively flat.
San Vicente Boulevard is considered the “Main Street” of Brentwood and is divided by a wide median on which stand many large and attractively sculpted coral trees. Brentwood boosters have adopted a coral tree silhouette as a de facto community logo.
Brentwood features a number of residential sub-districts, some as small as a few blocks, others ranging over acres of hills:
