Studio City has a below average violent crime rate and a high property crime rate for Los Angeles.
The name of this neighborhood is no lie: there is a major television and movie studio within its borders where dozens of well-known shows are made. Because of this studio and others located nearby, Studio City is home to a number of actors and you'll likely spot celebs in some of the great restaurants along the main street, Ventura Boulevard.
The quiet, tree-lined residential streets include many homes featured in various television shows. A Sunday Farmers Market provides a great place to stock up on fresh food and entertain your kids with face painting and a petting zoo.
Several excellent schools make this a popular neighborhood for families.
Studio City is bordered on the north by Valley Village, on the east by Toluca Lake and Universal City, on the south by the Hollywood Hills, and on the west by Sherman Oaks.
