    Living in Glendale, CA

    Living in location

    Glendale is a small city in California's San Fernando Valley and Verdugo Mountains. With safe communities, Glendale attracts renters with its excellent schools, extensive shopping opportunities, rich culture, well-maintained parks and easy connections to other areas. Situated just north of downtown Los Angeles, renting in Glendale means being close to metropolitan amenities, while also enjoying the affordability and calm lifestyle of a smaller city. Glendale renters will enjoy a Mediterranean climate with mild, wet winters and hot, dry summers. Average temperatures range from 47°F to 88°F with minimal rain during winter and no snow. Like other areas in southern California, renters may experience the Santa Ana winds during the fall and winter months, which can increase the risk of wildfires and cause warmer temperatures.

    Glendale is not only about its serene environment but also a hub for entertainment and dining, boasting a vibrant culinary scene with a variety of international cuisines. The Americana at Brand and Glendale Galleria are focal points for shopping enthusiasts, offering renters a mix of high-end retail and boutique experiences. The city's dedication to the arts is made clear through its numerous galleries and the historic Alex Theatre, presenting a range of performances and events. Active renters and families are drawn to the Brand Library & Art Center, providing a wealth of resources and cultural enrichment within this dynamic Californian community.

Notably, according to California law, landlords may ask for a security deposit of no more than two months' rent for unfurnished and three months' rent for furnished rentals in Glendale.
