About

West SFV Lifestyle is a blog focused on the West San Fernando Valley and the great people, places, and things found in our “way out west“ part of the valley. I created this blog out of my love for this community. My husband and I moved to this part of the valley last year. Previous to moving here, I lived in Los Angeles proper since 1996. Born and raised in Ventura County, the West SFV area felt like very similar to what I was familiar with.

Soon after moving in, I became interested in meeting my neighbors, learning about the history of the the West SFV, my neighborhood, and joining some community groups. Living in the city it’s easy to be a number and disconnected from the community. Here in the West SFV, people are proud to live here and want to be a community.

What is the West SFV? I will be writing primarily about West Hills, Woodland Hills, and Canoga Park. 

Why did I start this blog?

  • As a community resource to West SFV residents and those interested in moving here
  • Highlight the history of the West SFV area as it’s hard to find this info in one place
  • Focus on our West SFV lifestyle 

What you can expect to find on this blog:

  • Helpful resources
  • Content on local businesses, local restaurants, and their owners
  • Historical highlights and facts
  • Tips to living your best West SFV life!

I would love to connect with you! If you have topic ideas or are a local West SFV resident and have some stories you want to share, please be my guest as an author on a post.
