[quote=Anonymous]Not sure if you live in the DMV, but to try to give you an analogy: I would say USC is located in the equivalent of like Gallaudet or Catholic University in the district. Downtown LA has gentrified quite a bit and is now a fairly lively place vs. it used to kind of be a ghost town 20 years ago. USC is not directly adjacent to downtown LA...there are some rough areas in between and you want to have good street smarts. I would say UCLA is located in the equivalent of Bethesda. Westwood is a nice area and UMC. Now, directly north of UCLA (like it starts across the street from UCLA at the end of campus) is Bel Air which of course is an incredibly high end area of $20MM+ homes, but it is residential with private estates...students are not venturing into the area unless they snag an invite to the Playboy Mansion (is it even still the Playboy Mansion?) which I think is within a 1/2 mile of UCLA.[/quote]
