[quote=Anonymous]A thing to note OP, is Pasadena is not LA. Its a 45 mins drive inland but a lot more relaxed and laid back. And a lot hotter, maybe 10-15 degrees most of the year which can get challenging if you have a heat wave. In South Pasadena the public schools are some of the highest ranking in the whole greater Los Angeles area. There is a very high Asian population there and its credited with making these schools great. If you're not Asian this is the one place where your child will be very much in the minority. And the parent population is generally younger in Pasadena. In Santa Monica or Los Angeles, Pacific Palisades, the parent population is late 30s+ for having kids so many parents of school age children in their 40s and 50s. But in Pasadena the parents are a lot younger, starting in their 20s and early 30s. I don't know if this matters but it was something we observed while living there over the years. I would go back in a heart beat.[/quote]
