Is Sunset Boulevard safe?
Sunset Boulevard is a very busy area, day and night. The experiences you can get are very diverse depending on where you are. Generally speaking, it is a relatively safe place to be, especially since patrols are becoming more frequent. But as with all places filled with big nightclubs and world-famous entertainment venues, it’s best to be cautious when you go there at late hours.
Why is it called Sunset Boulevard?
Sunset Boulevard was originally a small dirt road 600 feet long located near the old Plaza. The development of the city of Los Angeles led to the expansion of the boulevard. Sunset Boulevard was registered in the street department’s records in 1888. From that point on, its popularity grew steadily as the road was graded, paved and pushed further west. Legend has it that the street was named by a city employee who was crossing the westbound boulevard and noticed the beauty of the setting sun.
How long does it take to drive Sunset Boulevard?
From Crescent Heights to the ocean, Sunset Boulevard is about 22 miles long, which is about a 30-minute trip. But it all depends on whether you use this route during rush hour or not, and the type of transportation you use. Most of the time, traffic is fairly slow, especially during rush hour and in both directions. When there is little or no traffic, however, the boulevard is an extremely fast lane as it has few short-timed traffic signals, especially west of Doheny Drive.
