Venice Blvd
"major street from the beach to downtown"
Venice is a very busy street. There are some apartments, a lot of stores and a lot of restaurants. Many parts of the street stretch three lanes each way. It's a great way to get across town in times of heavy traffic, but not a good place to live. Apartments are cheap, but for a reason. There are, of course, better parts -- in fact, some of the sketchier parts in Venice have of late become much more trendy and safe, but most of the street is still very, very urban.

"the busiest dead end street in the world"
Having lived here off and on for 10 years, I've had lots of experience with the pit falls of this street. One would think that the fact that it only runs two blocks and dead ends at an apartment complex would mean it would be a quiet, peaceful street, but that is not the case. The street is busy at all times of day or night, making parking or even waiting outside often a troublesome activity. One feels relatively safe as there are many eyes on the street, but it is also true that in years past, there was some gang activity in the western most block.
That said, the neighborhood is improving rapidly along with the improvement of adjacent Culver City. In five to ten years time, I suspect the street will be markedly different.
