Culver City is a disjointed town, split by a creek. Parts of the city blend into nearby neighborhoods. The western side wiggles down Washington Boulevard in a shape that looks like a dog.
    
Culver City was built for the middle class at a time when two and three bedroom homes were the vogue. The streets are clean, homes are generally kept up, the town seems to get a lot of the old tender loving. Some streets are decorated with old-fashioned lights. A small neighborhood on the south rises into hills with view homes.
    
The city is just a short hop from the Santa Monica Freeway, which leads to downtown L.A., 11 miles to the east. Culver City has a good jobs base, which means a local commute for many. Sony Pictures employs about 1,200.
