A cost efficient option in Brentwood

11668 Kiowa Ave has a great location. it is walking distance from Ralphs, Whole Foods, gyms, pharmacies, restaurants, just to mention some. You can drive to school (12 min) or bike to school (20 min). The building is a bit old but very well maintained by the administration. Neighborhood is very secure and has a lot of young people.

Barrington Kiowa

Positives:
-2 miles from campus so only takes about 10 minutes to drive.
- Very close to a lot of the bars first years tend to go to
- Very safe neighborhood
- Building is in good shape for its age
- Management is very nice and responsive. (Does not always mean they do as they say though)

Negatives
-Expensive for what you get. But that is just the whole Brentwood Area.
-Had one issue with a leaky sink the management company failed to fix for over a month.
- Apartments that face the courtyard do not have much privacy.

Great option

I've enjoyed Barrington Kiowa for the two years I have lived here. The management team is very responsive, and I love that we can use the pool and gym at Barrington Plaza - clutch!!!

Good value and location

Takes about 20 minutes to get to campus. Within walking distance to Whole Foods, Starbucks, a few good restaurants and bars. Access to Barrington Plaza's gym and pool. Only negatives are tandem parking, coin-operated laundry, and we've had a few ant problems. Other than that, it's a great apartment.

About Sawtelle

Sawtelle is a popular option for UCLA students looking for proximity to campus and a short trip to the beach. While there are many great restaurants and shops in the area, some of them cater to a slightly older clientele and can be a bit pricey. The neighborhood is repeatedly highlighted for its saf...

Sawtelle Reviews

88 reviews
Centrally located in West La. Close to Brentwood, Santa Monica, Westwood, Sawtelle, Culver.

A decent amount of homeless people but not at the Venice level.
Many Anderson and UCLA students around so never a dull moment. The area feels comfortable even at night. All of the worthy restaurants are on Sawtelle blvd which is great if you appreciate ramen. You will most likely branch out for more to do but it provides great proximity to UCLA and everywhere else
Probably most popular place for food in the west la area. Ramen, Japanese food, and dessert alley. Bit pricey but since it's upscale and popular, it feels safe at night. Close enough to school if you drive. Lots of students live in the area, but you'll need to uber to meet them or meet them at the restaurants.
Within a few blocks walking to the primary bars that Anderson events are held at. The neighborhood is fairly residential and quiet, but not too far from some good restaurants and bars in Brentwood and Santa Monica. The great thing is that so many classmates tend to live nearby. Less than 3 miles from the ocean at Santa Monica.
25 minutes driving to school in rush traffic. 15 minutes otherwise. Neighborhood is quiet and safe, but a range of bars, shops, restaurants, grocery stores, etc. are within walking and short driving/uber range. Bus and metro stops are both fairly close. Easy highway access to both the 405 and the 10. Price range is cheaper than Brentwood or Santa Monica.
Pros:
- Close drive to UCLA campus w/ easy access to 405
- Can pick up #1 bus from Santa Monica and Sawtelle bus to UCLA
- Given the area, street parking is not too difficult to find
- Easy walk to Sawtelle for food
- Rent is reasonable given the area
- Small complex with only 12 units so there's not too much noise
- Management is very responsive

Cons:
- Non-master bedrooms are pretty small and one of them has a stand-up shower (not a bathtub)
- Appliances and apartment doesn't feel very "modern" (though everything works)
Lots of good Asian restaurants and convenient grocery stores.
Lots of bars and restaurants nearby. Lots of other Anderson students within a mile radius. Quick drive to school (13-15min almost always). In-between Santa Monica Blvd and Wilshire so there are lots of bus options if you won't have a car.
