Burbank Overview

Proudly known as the 'Media Capital of the World', Burbank is home to over 100,000 residents, ideally located near both Hollywood and Los Angeles proper. Featuring a thriving and glamorous job market, as well as famously impressive weather, this California hot spot is truly a slice of the good life.

What is the history of Burbank?

Taking its namesake from a local dentist and real estate investor, Burbank flourished quickly throughout the 1800s. By 1874 the Southern-Pacific Railroad added a stop in the city, and by 1900 telephone service was available to the locals. The 1930s and beyond saw the city become home to aircraft construction, and as the city's notoriety grew as a hotspot of media industry, so did its manufacturing and trucking businesses. Today, Burbank remains a much sought-after place to call home.

How is the weather in Burbank?

Those residing in Burbank apartments can expect heavenly weather for much of the year. Spring, summer and fall are all highlighted by sunny, comfortable temperatures, hovering around the 80s in June and July and dipping into the 60s in autumn. Winter is likewise pleasant and mild, with snow practically unheard of.

How do I get around town?

The Burbank Bus system covers much of the city, and both Amtrak as well as METRO Rail can be found with ease within the city limits as well. Bob Hope Airport is far and away the largest and most-used flight option, and while many Burbank apartment residents own a car or truck, the city's reputation as a 'fit' locale is well founded, many locals rely upon bicycles to get around on a daily basis.

What is the Burbank commute like?

A majority of residents living in Burbank rentals also work in the city, although some commute to the larger job market of Los Angeles. The Golden State Freeway is a much-utilized roadway, and thanks to recent construction improvements moves at a brisk pace despite its widespread use. U.S. Route 101 runs up the coastline to the west, and the Ventura Freeway remains yet another popular, if more congested, option.

What are the local media outlets?

The 'LA TImes' handles much of the print news coverage for the area, and radio is wide-reaching and diverse in format, ranging from classic rock and hip hop to modern alternative and jazz. NPR affiliates are also found easily, and just about every broadcast television option is readily available to Burbank apartments.

Why live in Burbank, CA?

Home to both Warner Brothers as well as The Walt Disney Company, Burbank rentals offer a world of employment opportunities for those in the field of media and show business. Both Yahoo! and the American Broadcast Company also call the city home, yielding a very substantial economic base. Shopping and nightlife excitement are easily within reach, and area schools are highly regarded. Simply put, Burbank apartments represent some of the finest in California living.

What Burbank landmarks should I see?

The famed Sunset Blvd is a must-see for any film buff, and Universal Studios is a short jaunt away. The Portal of the Folded Wings is an amazing sculpture structure that simply must be experienced in person, and the original Bob's Big Boy eatery can still be found on Riverside Drive.

What is there to do around Burbank?

Take a tour of the famous Rock House, an impressive home dating back to the 1920s constructed of indigenous river rocks, or spend the day at the Travel Town Museum, surrounded by trains and automobiles of old. The Bearded Lady Mystic Museum is an impressive collection of carnival history and beyond, while the Martial Arts History Museum presents an in-depth overview of the black belt world.

Any annual festivals or Burbank events to know?

The Burbank International Film Festival is a very popular yearly event, and the Downtown Car Classic draws large crowds of auto fans from all over the state every spring. The American Wine and Food Festival brings together epic pairings of cuisine and the grape, while the Old Tyme Country Faire revives nostalgia of a bygone era.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

Spend a weekend exploring the nearby Verdugo Mountains, complete with its numerous hiking trails, or enjoy a scenic drive up Highway 101 along the famous California coast line. Of course, the nightlife excitement of LA is a short trip away as well, and the west coast beaches are known the world over for very good reason. Surf's up, dude!
