I did a long term rental as my parents were visiting from India and had decided that Uptown Whittier (which is quite central to almost 3 major freeways in LA and is at the cusp of OC) as the place to be. I was not only lucky to find a home but also one of the nicest homeowners I’ve come to know. Friendly, warm, open hearted and very prompt in anything we needed (even though that wasn’t much as her home was pretty well equipped). A quiet neighborhood, very cool and friendly neighbors, and a home which spells classic American (we loved that it was built in the 1940’s and yet so well maintained), a fun back patio for morning coffee, a huge backyard, and a projector which really kept us entertained. We loved this place well enough to want to come back and stay again. Thanks Eva, you really did make my parents first time in USA ‘living like locals’.
