Wanna Live in "Tarzana"?


       This post may be too "in" for those from outside the San Fernando Valley in California.  All summer, the L.A.Times "Hot Property" Section on Saturdays has been including a two-page spread on different neighborhoods in Los Angeles, their history, information about diversity, median income, age, rent vs. owned, education and so on, plus attractions and possible negatives of living there.

       One week's issue spotlighted the community of Tarzana.  I wonder how its residents reacted when they read this under the heading "Neighborhood challenges"--


       "May be too relaxed for some:  Tarzana is great for people who find Encino too exciting."


P.S.  If you were a novelist as rich as Edgar Rice Burroughs, you too could name the land you bought  for your most famous "liiterary" creation.  (Personally I'm glad I don't live there.)
