The neighborhood also borders the City of Glendale to the east, making countless shops and restaurants a short drive from the neighborhood. For those searching for locally owned shops and stores within Griffith, head to Los Feliz Boulevard for community staples like Tam O’Shanter and the Morrison.
Griffith sits along the Los Angeles River and Interstate 5, giving residents easy commutes and access to waterfront views. While the neighborhood is near some of Los Angeles’ best attractions, Griffith itself is largely residential, offering renters everything from modern apartments to cozy single-family homes.
