Do any of you guys live in Eagle Rock?

Recently I've been visiting Eagle Rock quite often to see shows at CFAER, and it's definitely my favorite place in LA. I'd love to live there soon but of course, I know about the visiting, not the living. Do any of you guys live there? Is it a nice place? And is it super expensive? Haha thank you..

We're based from and live there. It's awesome! Everything tends to be walking distance and there's lots of great places to eat such as Oinkster, Casa Bianca, Lemongrass, Organix, etc. Lots of great bars and places to eat after 10pm. Lots of good taco trucks and there's buses that run all night that go to Hollywood and Downtown Los Angeles if you're a commuter. I myself haven't had a car for over a year and can get places in a reasonable amount of time from Eagle Rock.

That's awesome! I'll definitely be checking out those eateries next time I visit. I think Ty Segall lives there as well as some other SF garage rock dudes that recently relocated....sounds like a really cool scene is starting to spring up. Thanks for the reply! I love your guys' website and visit it quite often. If you ever are hiring/interning/whatever let me know! :winkiss I plan to be living there (hopefully) by this time next year.

Thanks for the compliments!

FYF Fest is the current booker at Center For The Arts, Eagle Rock. Once in a while someone will use All-Star Lanes for gigs, usually punk or noise. There's also a Eagle Rock Music Festival that happens every October. Besides that, not much music going on which is kind of a good thing. It's the right balance.

Make sure you check out Permanent Records there. http://www.permanentrecordschicago.com/news.php They have live music almost every weekend and Liz and Lance are great people!

I live in Highland Park, which is right next to Eagle Rock. I love NELA! Eagle Rock has everything you need without being crazy busy like the rest of LA...and the housing is affordable. I live in a 2 bedroom house with a deck and a nice private yard and I only pay $400 more than when I lived in a 2 bedroom apartment in LA. Plus, as mentioned up there, it's such a walkable location! Also, lots of record stores in NELA and we also have our own art walk.

caught the oh sees at center for the arts. free beer! (with donation, of course)
