With approximately 40,000 residents spread over nearly 5 square miles, Culver City is an incorporated city known for its movie studios. MGM has moved, and Sony Pictures now has a large presence there. Combining small town charm with big city amenities Culver City is fast becoming a trendy destination for restaurants, movie theaters and art galleries, and the New York Times has called Culver City the “nascent Chelsea.

Culver City Homes for Sale

The Culver City phase of the Expo Line, a light rail from downtown to Santa Monica, is estimated to be completed in 2012, further raising the cache of living in this area.

Culver City homes for sale are still affordable by Los Angeles standards.

2010 Census results show the population of Culver City as 38,883 living in 17,491 housing units.

Sounds like an interesting spot to live. I love the shot of the funky clock with the gnarled tree.

I'm really enjoying this series, especailly about the areas I sorta know. I really like Culver City and have enjoyed seeing how it has changed in the last 5 years. Good job on presenting this information. And the map is great, even if you hand was a little unsteady. LOL

Not good that I read this before I ate dinner. Just the word restaurants got me to thinking about food. Nice overview.

I can't even wrap my head around that many people living in that much space. But I need to do a post about my county's stats.

Jane, I have been to Culver City, it is beautiful there. I did not realize how little it was.. only 5 (very odd) square miles. :)

Nov 17, 2011 12:19 PM

Melissa, if I cooked I'd invite you up to dinner.

Rebecca, uh oh.

Tammy, like Rebecca, you probably don't have as many people in your county :)

Patty, are you criticizing my map?:)
