You can hike the streets on a series of "secret stairs", which are easily found on the internet. Have fun, but be careful of cars coming around the curves.
The one thing I've always noticed about Hollywood is the streets are so nasty looking, old and cracked up to say the least! With all the money Hollywood generates and with all the rich people who live around there, you'd think the roads would literally always be newly paved and ... with "gold" at that! Geez! It's dumpy looking throughout the "Hills" like the slums of Hollywood if anything. I personally wouldn't want to live there rich or poor. It's definitely not considered a beautiful place.
I would assume it's pretty hard to fix the roads in such a place. They're way too narrow and you can't reroute the traffic too well. Must be a logistical nightmare especially considering the type of residents who live there.
In the older tracts of the Hollywood Hills, the streets were laid out in the mid 1920's. That's approximately 100 years ago. Circuitous roads built on steep hills experience a lot stress. The land is not stable. The terrain is always gradually shifting. Streets built on a flat surfaces don't experience this kind stress. Also, there's a lot of water erosion and root growth. On top of that issue is the beating they take, not just from the residential inhabitants but from a NON-STOP steady stream of tourists and sightseers. When I am driving on these streets I really don't even notice the cracks. Remember, the camera is hyper-focused on everything immediately in front of it. You're seeing a distortion. There really aren't any potholes that haven't been patched. In the newer neighborhoods the streets are newer. The Hollywood Hills is not for everybody. You either love it or you don't. It attracts quite a diverse group of people. There's alot people that work in the film industry along with other professionals. Most that live here love the rural ambiance combined with all the breathtaking views that are not far from the clamor below.
The only neighborhood on earth where is the famous people and people who work with famous people and people who know people that work with famous people live there
What I love about California are the hills as well they’re beautiful the way roads go up the hill and down the hill Malibu is just beautiful it’s good as long as you’re not at homeless beach’s those areas to avoid
@@exploreusacities Goood Grief I know jobs around there pay very good i take it. Has to be somewhere that is a good amount for rent out there outside of Hollywood like if it is let's say 2-3 hrs away i'm sure a small town has Apts for $500 or $600 a month for rent but Where? Someone that is struggling where i am now but, I need an escape and start living and California is it...
If you can find a single room in a house you might get to around $500 but you will have roommates. It will be somewhere in the San Fernando valley. Moving 3 hours away doesn't really help. You can rent a dump in Fresno for $1500 but I'd rather live in a dump in Hollywood for $2000
Great video, new subscriber all the way from UK, i always wanted to know how to get up to that Hollywood sign i dont have a clue but its a dream come true lol
I got as close as you can by driving. To get to the sign you have to park somewhere and hike. I don’t think you’re actually allowed to get close without trespassing.
@@exploreusacities oh thanks fo rthe advise, yea i would imagine its a long hike, i dont mind hiking as long as i know where i am going lol, i came LA 10 years ago on a tour bus, even they didnt take us as close lol
Yeah, a bus could never drive up there. Very narrow. Every 100 yards there were signs saying "NO ACCESS TO HOLLYWOOD SIGN!" If you notice they grew trees and hedges to block the view so that joyriders wouldn't do what I'm doing.
@@exploreusacities yea true, but i thought the bus would park up and then the tourist would make us hike but they didnt do that either lol, yea i noticed the signs too, you did well to even get that close
From an African perspective, thank you for this. We are tired of Bev Hills, Harlem, Queens, Manhattan, Brooklyn. We don't often get to see rural America. This video makes America seem more real.
@@exploreusacities potatoes now please we have every kind of food in ireland thats a stereo type coment their you made we have every kind of food in the world here in ireland

I was wondering why Arrow of Starcrawler said you cannot walk on the streets of L A, you will get ran over 😂, if you have never heard of Starcrawler, they have a song called, Hollywood endings, and another one called, I LOVE L A, check them out, there has been a lot of good rock and roll bands come out L A,

Wow these garages are so close to the street!
One of the many perils of building your house on the side of a mountain

Nice ❤❤❤
HELLO, DIDN'T ELVIS HAVE A HOUSE IN THE HOLLYWOOD HILLS ? I WAS THERE BEFORE , I THINK I REMEMBER PASSING BY THE PLACE ... JOHN FROM NORTH CAROLINA.
my husband says YES....next to neil diamond's house.
0:21 Wtf was that, lol 😭
What is the cheapest but , very nice apts for 1 bedroom that is not toooo from Hollywood.?
There is no such thing as cheap and very nice in California. You can get a dumpy 1bdrm for 2k per month

If you find someone who does videos like mine in Africa I'd like to see that, please let me know if you find a channel like that.
Rural? Los Angeles? 😂
This is not rural America, The Northern half of the City of Los Angeles is over a mountain/ valley. Hollywood Hills is in the mountain.

Why don't you say what streets you are on and what streets you are passing?
That's a lot of work, why don't you do it for me?

Horrible place to live
Boring
