Living close to freeways - and even busy streets - is so deviously unhealthy. It's one of those things that slowly kills you in ways you can't comprehend.
I live in a small-ish town, and living next to a busy street was the worst living conditions I've ever had. Just constant fucking noise and vibrations. Drunk people yelling going to and from bars. Wastes of oxygen accelerating to 80 km/h in a 50 zone with their shitty noisy rust buckets.
I was constantly angry, agressive and on edge. Moved a few month ago to a more secluded house with much lower levels of noise, and all that stress is just gone!
Nah, I checked Street View, not great views. But the price is correct, for a studio at Wright Street Apartments. With a gas stove in case you're not inhaling enough fumes.
Would even fight a motherfucker or two for it. The white noise of traffic will lull me to sleep. Hopefully the exhaust and tire particles won't give me cancer long term.
That view is in 5min walking distance of a light rail line and within 15min walk of downtown LA. It is not beautiful, but in one of the richest cities in the world and easily possible to go car free.
It is NOT possible to go car free in LA. The public transit "exists" sure but it's ass and inconsistently implemented. Not to mention not a single square inch is walkable

$1400 is extremely cheap here. its honestly closer to double that and smaller than what one expects.
There's a studio unit at Wright Street Apartments for $1350
And with all the fine particles your lungs can take!
With the smoky complexity of mixed diesel and petrol fumes

In this economy? I'll take it.

It is actually a massive bargin. No kidding, it is 15min walk from downtown LA and very close to a light rail line.
But everything around looks like dystopian shit
It really is not that bad.

That's LA for you. It looks exactly like that.
I thought you wanted mixed use zoning?!
Looks like the spot where you start in GTA: San Andreas

Okay you're exaggerating a little. There are walkable square feet here
"Close to major transportation infrastructure!"
It's like a toilet bowl for PM2.5 particles!
Surprisingly walkable neighborhood… walking under overpasses, but still.
@Bonus Probably advertised as "near transportation".
