Welcome to Westwood Village — home to UCLA!
The home to UCLA, Westwood LA has the energy and international flavor of its youthful and diverse student population. It’s also a major center of commerce, with luxurious high rise apartments and office buildings running the length of Wilshire Boulevard.
Westwood Village Los Angeles Location & History
Some of the most opulent single-family homes in Los Angeles can be found in its Holmby Hills Estates neighborhood, including the famous Playboy Mansion. At the heart of this community is the Westwood LA area, founded in 1929.
Its shops, theaters and restaurants have kept the small-town feel of the original neighborhood, though glossy office towers and penthouses now surround it.
Westwood village is a central meeting place for students and tourists and a destination for moviegoers, who flock to the beautiful vintage theaters, sites of many world premieres. A notable Westwood Village attraction is the Armand Hammer museum, renowned for its world-class collections of Impressionist and Modern art currently expanding. A remarkably varied group of ethnic restaurants cater to a diverse student and resident population.
Apart from its rich history Westwood LA offers an amazing location that is home to UCLA and close to Brentwood, Beverly Hills, Bel-Air and Century City, all with their own vibrant shopping and dining centers. There is extensive local bus service to the area, along with plans to extend and complete the Metro new Purple Line subway and add lanes to the 405 freeway to ease travel time to and from Westwood.
