Brentwood (90049), lies on the east side of Santa Monica at the foot of the the Santa Monica Mountains. It is one of the most upscale areas of Los Angeles with a mix of high-end mansions to the north and single-family homes, condos and apartment buildings to the south. As with Santa Monica, the further south you go, the less expensive the housing.

San Vicente Boulevard and Sunset Boulevard are the main thoroughfares through the city, San Vicente being the area's main walk street with high-end boutiques, and restaurants. It is also a popular destination for joggers along the grassy center median planted with coral trees. North of Sunset the area is defined by the hills and canyons of the Santa Monica Mountains, while south is flat.
