On 06/14/2018, I have taken a slow stroll around Westwood neighborhood starting from Strathmore Drive where my Airbnb house located.  First, I walked downhill towards Westwood Village and enjoyed my breakfast at Whole Foods. 

Off-Campus Apartments

Most UCLA Sophomores moving out of dormitories stay in this Westwood neighborhood which is quite safe and mostly covered by school's BruinBus services.  In late evening, you can still find lots of students walking from Gayley Avenue down to Kelton Avenue.  Above photos show you what off-campus apartments looks like in that area.

Westwood Village

Just a ten minute walk from the Luskin Conference Center and its Westwood accommodations, this charming community enclave serves as the university’s unofficial college town. A destination for shopping and dining, it also holds a prominent place in film history, with its vintage landmark theaters that still host movie premieres today. Westwood Village also offers everyday conveniences for those visiting the UCLA Ronald Reagan Medical Center.

Luskin Conference Center

Walking along Westwood Blvd and then Westwood Plaza northwards, eventually you will reach UCLA Westwood entrance and Luskin Conference Center is on the left side of the road.
