Beverlywood, Los Angeles, CaliforniaBeverlywood is a neighborhood on the West Side of Los Angeles, California. It is also generally considered to be part of the Fairfax District. The northern portions are sometimes considered to be a separate neighborhood, South Robertson. It is bordered by Century City on the northwest, Rancho Park on the west, Cheviot Hills on the southwest, Culver City on the south, Carthay Circle on the east, the Miracle Mile on the northeast, and the city of Beverly Hills on the north. Its principal thoroughfares are Pico, La Cienega, and Robertson Boulevards. The Santa Monica Freeway runs along its southern edge. Largely residential, Beverlywood is one of the centers of Jewish life in Los Angeles. It contains a large number of synagogues and temples, as well as kosher restaurants, delicatessens, and markets. Renowned Nazi-hunter Simon Wiesenthal's Museum of Tolerance is in Beverlywood (and not, as is commonly thought, in Beverly Hills). The controversial Kabbalah Centre, whose mysticism has attracted famous disciples such as Madonna, is based in the district. The neighborhood is also home to large Arab and Persian populations. Inside of the Beverlywood area is the Beverlywood Homes Association. Homes located in the area of the association are generally considered more desirable than those outside of it. This may be due to the strict enforcement of the CC&R's by the association. The boundaries of the association area are roughly Robertson Blvd. on the east, Airdrome St. on the north, Rancho Park on the west, and Beverlywood St. on the south. See Beverlywood Homes Association web site.
