Cattle ranch turned suburbs - Willowbrook is your "rural" oasis in the metropolis of Los Angeles.
Willowbrook, California began to develop its first "burbs" in 1894, and the mix of suburban and rural continued until the early 1980s, when a redevelopment plan changed the landscape. Willowbrook is an unincorporated community in Los Angeles County with a population of slightly more than 35,000. A suburb of Los Angeles, it's about 13 miles south of the center of the city. It's so close that residents might as well be in LA. The area has typical California weather--hot summers and warm winters, and rainfall is low year-round. Be prepared for a lighter wallet; the cost of living is 30 percent higher than the United States average. Carpe diem and jaunt over to Willowbrook where you may just find your new home.
Vacancy rates vary from medium to high, so a finding a rental won't be an exercise in frustration. Be prepared to make a good impression, however. Who wants to rent to Lazy Lizzie, Disheveled Dan or Really Rude Rick? Be friendly and professional, and you'll have a better chance of getting approved. Although our mothers always told us that first impressions don't really matter, we all know that landlords don't listen to their moms. So, in addition to a good attitude, make sure that shirt is tucked, hair is combed and teeth brushed before stepping out.
With the decent availability of apartments in Willowbrook, you might find your new digs on the very first day! Don't head out empty handed. Take all the necessities, such as your credit report, employment and salary history, bank records, and reference list along on your hunt. Ask the realtor or rental manager exactly which paperwork he or she requires. Most importantly, bring your checkbook; money talks, and, well, you know the rest. If you find a place you love, throw down some cash to hold it. Otherwise, some slick character could snatch it right out from under you. These are mostly older homes, so make sure you are diligent in checking out the plumbing, electric, and appliances. Once you sign the lease, you're stuck with any issues. So, unless you ready for a DIY course in home repair it would be best to inspect everything prior to signing.
