Off topic: I am stuck in a service based company for last 4 years in a shitty project. The work I do can be done by a 12th grader. Now i want to move out by learning something new & changing my domain. But the thing is I am not able to study because I am stuck in a comfort zone and learning new thing gives me bad anxiety. It feels like I will never learn & be forever stuck here. Pls help on how to come out of comfort zone, learn things and apply for the job. Tata Consultancy Infosys Wipro

definitely depends on what amenities (yard? in-unit laundry? garage?) and what type of setup (home/quadplex/duplex/apt building?) you need/desire most.
but there’s still subjectively-good 2br apts, even, in subjectively-good walkable areas. so a decent 1br under 3 isn’t a problem.
(transparency: born and raised in LA, mostly east, currently in highland park with $2300 1br, garage w/storage, yard, triplex)
Having a yard or at least some sort of deck or balcony is really nice to have in LA. You can pretty much enjoy being outside year round, so it’s a little different than Boston. I think Highland Park is the best bang for your buck currently in LA. I also think you can get a lot better deals in homes/duplexes/quadplex than a large apt building. Having a garage or at least parking beyond just street parking is so nice to have in LA regardless of neighborhood.
I lived in West LA (90025) near the borders to Brentwood and Santa Monica for years and loved the area. My buddy affectionately referred to my apartment type as a “Westside Crumbler” insinuating that the next big earthquake would raze the old building to the ground. If you’re ok living in an older looking unit without tons of amenities, I think you can find options in West LA within your budget. Lots of bars/restaurants/cafes/shopping nearby
This area is extremely shitty but affordable
Lots of apts around the palms/culver area in your range the area is very walkable and downtown culver is great.
Agree on Culver. Still consider your job and if you have a commute, but otherwise Culver is great. A lot to walk to, a lot of new too.
This is easily doable, but you have to give more context. Do you want west side/beachy/straight/potentially douchey vibes? Sceney/socialite vibes? Hipster vibes?
Silver lake or Los Feliz are the plsce
Miami, FL
I would say Koreatown area north of Wilshire Blvd. just because its central to a lot of places.
