      @@rogersampaio7450 hello! I've lived in Sherman Oaks for about 5 years and can't say I've seen or witnessed any violence or anything like that. I live by a public park with my 5 year old and feel safe. It also seems like I'm seeing a lot less homeless as well than I used to. Here's hoping it continues to get better!

    I lived in Sherman Oaks for about 10 years over 20 years ago. Worked at Universal Studios in accounting. Not a big deal. Just did the same old stuff when I lived in Burbank and doing the same old stuff now in the Coachella Valley. Had a little store at the Sherman Oaks Galleria when it was dying. It's been revamped since then.

      Another tax idea, grab another property in NV TX or Fl....(I did the later state cause the ocean water is very warm) so since my business is internet based, can homestead (have new perm residence) in Fla for me, no state income tax. ...You do have to visit the other state quite frequently however. :-)

    I loved van nuys Sherman oaks as a kid in the 70s I lived in Weddington near chandler school and magnolia Ave was the border between van nuys and Sherman oaks. I loved being in van nuys our street was all ranch houses half acre lots with pools some with tennis courts fruit trees everywhere and walnut trees on blocks down to Woodman. Across the street they tore down a house built a mansion in 78 and thsts when it started to keep up with the Jones they destroyed the history of the ranch house to compete and build bigger mansions on block. Issac van nuys Isaac lankersheim and hazeltine moses Sherman built the valley as a farming community with ranch homes it's gone now and they changed name to Sherman oaks cos didn't want to associate with van nuys. Very disappointing went to visit my house last year and trees are all gone no semblance of history. Then again bunker hill the original beverly hills is gone and now music center is there

Now when I show people LA I show west Addams and Franklin Canyon and in burbank there's a cool spot take magnolia to the end make a right go to first street to make a left go uphill and stay to the left of the fork and you will see houses in the hills with different shapes colors sizes in the hills one has a train track like angels flight to the house
