Reply With Quotethis sux. i'd try to avoid moving though. santa monica is awesome and you probably have rent control now. as expensive as your place must be - it's be way more to the next renter. have you tried asking people you work with (besides just close friends)
seriously hope this works out. a new rental in venice can easily cost you more if you've been in your current spot for awhile

Should I move??
My roomate recently gave his 30days notice, which it left me in a messed up situation. I have to find a roomate. I've asked everyone that I know, and they aren't looking to move. I spoke to the landlord about this, and she said if I don't find anyone soon, she will find one for me. Yikes! I'm not down to have a stranger come into my place and live here. I really don't want to move, my apartment is cool, not to far from the beach. It would suck to lose this place. I've been looking around santa monica, rent is sky high, so I'm forced to look around venice. If I decide to move, I want to give my 30days notice at the beginning of august. What should I do?

Yes we do have rent control. I've lived in this place for 3yrs and in Santa monica for 15yrs. The landlord said if we leave they would rent it for over $1700. Rent in venice isnt that bad, average is about $900 for a 1BD/ 1BA.

well - me personally, i'd rather have my own place in venice than share a place with someone i didn't know in santa monica. (but i've never feared venice the way people seem to think i should. i lived in inglewood for a year - venice isn't scary.)
good luck whatever you decide.

Try to get ahold of Pitboss. You don't know me from Adam so I don't expect this to mean much coming from me, but I'll vouch for his character any day of the week.

20 min. north of Sacramento. I am also an alum. It was the "bike capitol" lol until Chico took the title away. Small family oriented community and town. I loved going to school there though and so did my friend.

Thanks. Thats a very thoughtful offer but I have a steady job here, girlfriend, and got too much love for SoCal. (not the people, just the life). I used to live up north and I cant take it, its too slow for me.

Screw that, I lived there for 4 months and it nearly drove me insane. Course I did live in the middle of the desert on a marine corps base, but the price of milk there is either double or triple what it is over hear, I wouldn't even want to think about paying rent there, plus I hated the people, maybe it was just LA and Palm Springs, but they just got to me, though I did like the time I spent in San Diego, and San Francisco, and the fact that vegas was in driving distance was awesome. But you couldn't pay me to move back out there, too many bad memories of sand and rock, don't need it. Originally Posted by aggies1ut
