Silver Lake is an Eastside neighborhood that fully embraces the hipster lifestyle. Although often described as the Brooklyn of Los Angeles, Silver Lake is much more than just a hipster haven. The popular central L.A. neighborhood has gone from urban grit to sophisticated chic over the years and is home to celebrities, creatives, professionals, and an ever increasing number of families.

It offers some of the best of L.A. living, in close proximity to Hollywood and Downtown Los Angeles and incredible hilltop views, independent boutique shopping, and an increasingly popular dining scene. Residents also enjoy the easy access to sought-after outdoor spaces such as Silver Lake Meadows, Silver Lake Dog Park, Barnsdall Art Park, Bellevue Park Basketball Courts, Echo Park, and Elysian Park.
