- SILVER LAKE, Los Angeles: i.e., the Brooklyn of LA? I gave up my west LA lifestyle for a day to explore this quirky, hipster place that might be LA's coolest neighborhood. Welcome to Silver Lake.

I think people would appreciate Los Angeles more if they stopped comparing it to New York City and vice versa. It’s like comparing apples and oranges.
As a resident of LA who doesn't get outside enough, your channel gives me ideas for new places to explore!
Michael, You are the sweetest guy on TH-cam. Love your videos. I like your relaxed and informative style. I almost want to get on a plane and drop in on L.A. I was last there in 1970, yikes. OMG, you deserve an award for climbing those stairs.
thanks 😄😊
Can totally agree- as someone from NJ on the outskirts of NYC- I loved visiting Silver Lake when I lived in LA- felt like a mix of NYC and LA combined.
I grew up there in Silverlake, you did it justice. Thanks.
Can't believe I missed this video!!! Silver Lake is one of my favorite Jackson Brown songs. Don't know about the comparison to sheep meadow but I do love the shops and walkability score. Love the stair streets and would definitely have climbed them too.🍎💚💯
I really liked Silver Lake on my brief visit. Would love to see a video about neighboring Los Feliz
Wow loved Your videos on LA!!! I’m coming in a week for the first time. I’m so excited 🎉😊
Thanks for the ideas! Today I checked out the secret stairs you mentioned. Pretty cool!
Best LA channel on TH-cam
O sure did enjoy it ❤❤❤!! Three hearts. More on Silver Lake please.
Nice video seeing this side of LA also we love your edit hope your well? Thank you for sharing 💙💪🏼
I moved here to LA (right by silver lake actually hehe) back in May and I've been watching your videos a couple months PRIOR to moving bc they gave me insight on what to expect, and I really hope I see you out vlogging one day so I can give you a big thank you lol
love it!! hope to run into you too🙂
Loved your Vedio always uplifting thanks for visiting Silver lake please come to Echo park next, your just a foot away..yayyy! I can't wait!!
Silver Lake is cool, but I prefer the Eagle Rock/Highland Park area as my hipster destination. It's getting a bit too gentrified, but it still has a really cool vibe. Perhaps Portland is a good comparison.
Congrats on 5k subscribers
Thanks!!
Are you a full time TH-camr? Do you work as well can you make a video on how to afford the cost of living in LA
Part time, that’s a good idea 👍🏻
Random fact: Silversun pickups (the band) was named after Sunset Junction. "Silversun" being Silver Lake - Sunset. They'd go there to pickup alcohol.
One of my favorites as well MICHAEL,
Love, love ,love your videos, I wish I had the energy to walk up all those stairs! BTW, you look HOT in the beanie and glasses!
🤣🤓
Ey im moving to LA this week from Switzerland and thinking about silver Lake!
Thank you for fact finding and resorcing information. Yeah... In the late 60's early 70's. As outer suburbs in LA looked more appealing. People started moving. Just like other cities. ie.. Dupont Circle, French Quarter, Castro District, Downtown Palm Springs, Greenwich Village. This new bohemian artsy enclave moved in. It was predominantly gay men. In the early 80's, silver Lake was destined to be LA's gay community. But by 1983. The unincorporated area of LA west, became West Hollywood (WeHo). Taking the title of gay district LA. In the early days, WeHo had more gay business. With Silverlake still having more gay residents.
Longer video on West Hollywood please :)
Loving your content so far and been conflicted between Culver City (based on your recommendation) and West Hollywood now.
planning on it!👍🏻
West Hollywood..yes Michael please! After 30 years we are determined to move back to Calif, just figuring out how to make it happen . Michael your videos help so much - thanks!
@@larguello1 100%. @Michael nobody else on TH-cam is keeping it real like you. Your channel is a gem for getting a genuine "feel" for how things are in LA. Been binging every video :)
And yes sir there is a HUGE park!! It’s called Griffith Park it’s beautiful
I like your videos..Informative and funny ... Your videos have very good aerial views. Do you have a drone ? If not, where do you find these aerial views?
Thanks Nevin! I’m a drone pilot so they’re mine 🙂
**random bark**
Ho bro you should visit Los Feliz and shows us the famous murder mansion
Please Michael 👍✨❤️
More silver lake and or echo park plssss
Fitting that the Dodger Stadium is nearby since they originated from....
ooo so true!
Sunset Junction is NOT the heart of Silverlake. Its a border area that's the most crap area of silverlake that's Slake on one side and Hollywood on the other and gets the spill over from crap Echo Park. And the Music Box stair are technically part of E. Hollywood and the freaking pedestrian stairs which not hidden, but very common in that hilly area are NOT connected with the gay rights movement! They were there when there weren't so many streets in the area so people could quickly get to the Red Car lines.
How bad is the crime in L.A? Have you been personally affected by it?
There were many nice neighborhoods in LA years ago. Illegal immigration turned them into crap.
Big nothing
