Apt hunting -- Mid Wilshire Edition

Are they on CRACK??? I can't believe how much these people want to charge to live on Wilshire. Cheapest I found for a 1 bedroom was $1500 a month. I can literally live a block from my job in Beverly Hills for that amount AND have 2 bathrooms. So it looks like I'm going to be a 90210 posth type of woman in the near future. Hmm so that means I'll have to be a bit snotty and speak with my 'posh' voice when saying that I live in the BH (that's how we say it .. the BH (all caps))
