My company has some offices in the LA area.

Beauna Park
South Gate
Riverside
Rancho Cucamonga
Pomona

Of these what would be a good area to live in for a commute to each place? Single male most likely finding roommates.

You can't afford a place on your own in L.A? You poor.

I could, but I'd rather keep rent at like 50% of my potential income. I want to be able to actually do things.

But yes, I'll be OT poor.

I wouldn't want to live around any of those areas as a recent grad. Not exactly exciting spots.

What are you looking to do out here and how close do you want to be to L.A.? Are the offices in those particlular cities and how do you feel about commuting? I would not commute to/from Riverside, Rancho or Pomona. I would not live in Buena Park or Southgate, but they would be easier commutes from L.A.

Pomona is in Orange County and that can be a bitch of a commute if you don't live in that area.

West LA, South bay, downtown, century city. Basically everything inland will be more suburban/family oriented

All of these areas will be extremely expensive though.

My list in the OP are the locations of each office. I do not mind a commute of an hour or less. I would like to be within 30-45 minutes of a beach if possible.

As far as how close to LA I do not know. As long as it has things to do and is a young community thats fine with me.
