Westlake Village
Westlake Village is a small affluent city of roughly 8,300 residents at the far western edge of Los Angeles County, sitting on the LA-Ventura county line along the 101 freeway. The city is the LA County portion of a larger master-planned community that also extends across the county line into Ventura County (the Ventura portion is inside the City of Thousand Oaks). The community is organized around Westlake Lake, a 125-acre private lake with residential frontage, and Las Virgenes Unified School District serves the LA County side.
