Los Angeles (LA)- Pacific Palisades, California Relocation Guide

Pacific Palisades, California

With a population of about 27,000 and about 500 businesses, including retail shops, restaurants, and professional services, the "village" atmosphere still persists. Personal concern over the quality of the community remains high, bolstered by support from homeowners associations and numerous philanthropic and community organizations. There is a real "hometown" atmosphere and several events each year bring out residents to participate in community activities. The The Palisades has outstanding public and private schools.

The Palisades High School is one of the only six middle and high schools in the LA Unified School District to have been designated as a California Distinguished School for 2005. The Palisades is in close proximity to UCLA, Pepperdine and Loyola-Marymount universities. Pacific Palisades is accessible by Pacific Coast Highway (the famous Route 1 which winds its way down the entire California coastline) and the legendary Sunset Boulevard. It is close to freeways and can easily access the L.A. International Airport, world class museums, Restaurant Row, Beverly Hills, Hollywood, Downtown Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley.

The Palisades' location allows it to enjoy clean air and provide an ideal mild climate cooled by sea breezes, with mean summer temperature at 69.2 degrees and mean winter temperature at 56.1 degrees. Average rainfall, normally between October and May, is 15.53 inches. One can usually plan outdoor events without the threat of inclement weather from June to September.
