Right in the heart of the Golden state lies a melting pot where all the hot shots known to film industry are paying their taxes. May the owner be divorced (well duh, it’s an undying trend in tinseltown), dead or done for, you’ll find the streets lined up with residential units with prices that would make you take your hat off and cover the darkening spot down in the middle off your pants with it.

Other than what’s beneath those paparazzis’ skirts, is there such a word as a ‘cheap property’ in Hollywood? Not even the most cheapskate star’s cheap taste would make our pants recover from that piss stain now, would it? But, if you're a tourist and is just new to Hollywood, you would definitely need a place to stay so you could take those fanatic photos of your favorite star while you yourself wait for that chance to audition on any extra roles in a movie. Preferably, a zombie movie would be the safest shot.

Take your chances with online listings

There are lots of property listings in the internet. The trick is how to run your search by using the right keywords, say for example, ‘affordable apartment unit in a nudist neighborhood’. It's the safer way to check for housing advertisements without the hassle of traveling or commuting. You can easily google some related keywords and voila! You will be bombarded with lots of information from all over the web with some bonus results on that word ‘nudist’, of course. (Keep it down, results may be NSFW.)

The bulk of information from the net may confuse you and make it hard for you to determine which listings really offer affordable housing plans or apartment rentals. Let's check a few Hollywood areas where affordable apartments/houses can be found.

1. Los Feliz/Silverlake – For as low as under $1400, you can already find a decent 2-bedroom house. Los Feliz lies north of East Hollywood and just south of the Santa Monica Mountains, adjacent to the neighborhoods of Hollywood and Silver Lake.

2. Santa Monica – There are units which are under $1800. Santa Monica is situated on Santa Monica Bay, it is surrounded on three sides by the city of Los Angeles — Pacific Palisades on the northwest, Brentwood on the north, West Los Angeles on the northeast, Mar Vista on the east, and Venice on the southeast.

3. Echo Park – For as low as $1500, you can already have a 3-bedroom house with a yard. Echo Park is a neighborhood in Los Angeles, California, northwest of Downtown Los Angeles and southeast of Hollywood.
