Small Town in a Big City - 8/12/2021
I've lived in Burbank for 30 years. We raised our son here, he attended public schools and graduated high in his class. We have several friends that are also still here. Our neighbors are kind and we are supportive of one another. Burbank is in transition now, with lots of people moving out of the LA area, lots of new families moving in. My biggest complaint is the increase in traffic, but that is true everywhere in the LA area. For a small town feel in the middle of the big city, Burbank can't be Read More

Once once a great city. - 5/3/2021
I have lived in Burbank since 1990 and it sure has changed. The crime was once low but ever since the radically left city council has made changes this is no longer so. They go after small businesses with bogus fines. They make running a business here harder and more expensive than in surrounding cities. There is vacant business real estate everywhere you look. They have the highest sales tax rate in Read More

Burbank CA review - 2/15/2012
Burbank is a nice city with a focus on the entertainment industry. The city benefits from southern California's mild climate with no snow, moderate temps in the winter and occasional hot but dry days in late summer.

Burbank features its own police and fire departments separate and distinct from the rest of the Los Angeles area. These are a real plus because the city services are very responsive to its citizens.  Read More

A Great Place to Raise a Family - 2/25/2010
Burbank is a city with a small town feel and all the conveniences of a big city. The schools are good, crime is low, gangs are non-existant, and shopping is pretty good too! the cost of living is somewhat high, but it is mostly middle class with a focus on families and community.

Burbank borders with Los Angeles, so access is easy if you can handle the traffic, but Burbank has it's own airport so you don't have to if you don't want to. The city has two large community pools and the beach is an hour away.

Overall, Burbank is a great place to live, especially if you wan to raise a Read More

So Sad - 8/5/2009
I have lived in Burbank most of my life.It is not as bad as some of the surrounding cities,but most certainly has changed.
The housing is not much better,houses are old and still too expensive to live.
The crime has really gone up,and you really have to watch how you drive in this town,because they drive like maniacs.
My children and I are no longer happy here,hopefully someday soon get out of this Read More
