A healthy and eclectic mix of commercial districts and residential neighborhoods, the coastal city of Santa Monica is a vibrant community on the Pacific Ocean's Santa Monica Bay.
With an average of 325 days of sunshine a year, the city enjoys a mild climate that has been one of its main draws in its more than 200-year history. Santa Monica's soft breezes, azure skies and sun-kissed beaches have been enthralling people for centuries, but there's more to the city than its three-mile stretch of sandy shore.
A compact land area of 8.3 square miles means that Santa Monica is easy to get around in. Coupled with a pedestrian-friendly environment and a highly regarded public transportation system, this has made Santa Monica one of the most easily navigable cities in the country. What's more, you can go places without having to take your car out of the garage or burning up fuel other than your own calories. With this and its wealth of outdoor recreation activities, it's hard not to keep healthy in Santa Monica.
Located on Los Angeles' Westside, the city is bounded by Brentwood and Pacific Palisades to the north, Venice to the south, and Mar Vista and West Los Angeles to the east. It has easy access to major freeways and is only around six miles away from the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). A lively shopping and dining scene and excellent schools round off the list.
