About Koreatown

Koreatown is the densest neighborhood in Los Angeles, roughly between Vermont and Western along Wilshire and 6th. Housing is 1920s courtyard buildings and mid-century apartment blocks, plus newer high-rises on Wilshire — the widest range of price points of any LA neighborhood.

Getting to work from Koreatown

The best transit in the city: Purple and Red Lines at Wilshire/Vermont, Wilshire/Normandie, and Wilshire/Western reach downtown in 10 minutes and Hollywood in 15. Koreatown is the one LA neighborhood where going car-free is realistic.

Who shares apartments here

Recent arrivals to LA, students at USC and LA City College, service and hospitality workers, and large Korean and Latino communities.

The trade-off

It's loud, dense, and short on green space, and older buildings often have no laundry or parking. In exchange it's the cheapest well-connected roommate market in the city.
