Neighborhood Vibe

Echo Park wraps around its namesake lake with pedal boats, lotus flowers, and palm-fringed views of the Downtown skyline. Sunset Blvd runs through the heart of the neighborhood with taquerias, dive bars, and vintage shops -- it's artsy, proudly Latino, and increasingly expensive.
