There are pros and cons everywhere, but Westlake is mostly filled with stuck up ppl. I've lived in OC and LA county and I've met the most stuck up ppl here. I also heard that the schools are horrible. They only focus on sports, but their academics are really bad
Went to the church and schools. Very stuck up ppl. I have rich friends from other cities and they do NOT show off or brag as much as pppl in Westlake. Maybe bc there's not much to do here. Hello!!! Its the country
