Open Question: Moving to L.A … Where to rent?

31/05/11

Hi, my partner and I are are planning to move to the US in less then a year, more specifically Los Angeles. My partner is being transferred with work but is able to work from home, so no need to be close to head office. I run my own creative business that I can set up anywhere. So we have the luxury of choosing from the whole city.

We suspect (after doing some research) that we will be paying around $2000 - $3000 per month for rent, which is fine. What areas would you suggest looking at for a nice 2 bedroom place.

We’ve been to LA before but only on holiday so haven’t paid to much attention to residential areas.

Any help would be great!
Also … Is someone able to give a brief description on the different type or property. Where we are from I think we have slightly different names or they relate to different type of properties. ie,

Condo, Townhouse, etc…
