Venice is a neighborhood of Los Angeles where working canals run quietly behind beach bungalows and street artists set up next to tech offices on the same block. Founded in 1905 by developer Abbot Kinney as a resort town modeled after its Italian namesake, Venice has held onto that original sense of creative restlessness while evolving into one of the Westside's most sought-after addresses. The neighborhood anchors itself around two distinct identities: the energy of Ocean Front Walk and the more polished pace of Abbot Kinney Boulevard, each drawing a different rhythm of daily life.
Renters here choose from a wide range of housing, including beach walk-up apartments, canal-adjacent bungalows, converted lofts, and newer apartment communities near Rose Avenue and the Oakwood district. The Venice Canal Historic District offers some of the most distinctive residential streets in all of Los Angeles, with narrow footbridges and landscaped waterways just blocks from the Pacific.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
