Brentwood
is an upscale community located in Los Angeles County, just north of Santa Monica. The city of Brentwood has several subdivisions, including Brentwood Park, Brentwood Heights, South Brentwood and Westgate. California Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger lives in the hills above Brentwood, as does several other celebrities, including Cindy Crawford and Jim Carrey. Notable attractions in the community include the Brentwood Country Mart, which is a farmer’s market complex built in 1947, the Brentwood Village, which is a quaint shopping district near Sunset Boulevard, and the village commons area or Brentwood Green. A popular 2.7-mile walking/jogging trail runs alongside the boundary of the private Brentwood Country Club. Special events in the town each year include the traditional Maypole and the decoration of the coral trees during the winter holidays. Brentwood is just a couple of miles to the beach, and other Los Angeles attractions, such as the Santa Monica Pier, Muscle Beach, Palisades Park, Venice Beach, Disneyland, Knotts Berry Farm and Hollywood.

Brentwood Weather & Climate
|
|
|
|
Southern California enjoys a mild year round climate that is classified as Mediterranean. There are two distinct seasonal changes, categorized by the amount of rainfall received - a dry summer and wet winter with modest variation in temperature. In the dry season, a Pacific high-pressure system dominates the weather pattern creating warm and very dry air and a thick marine layer that typically advances inland during the night and burns off to hazy sunshine by midday. Surface pollutants trapped under the marine layer, or fog, create L.A.'s infamous "smog." In winter, the high system is no longer dominant and storms fed by subtropical moisture bring lots of rain into southern California during the months of November through March. Afternoon sea breezes of 10 to 15 mph are common. Strong offshore winds, known as "Santa Anas," though not uncommon, rarely cause damage.
