GreatView, try the city of El Segundo it's right on the south side of LAX. On the map pick city button for zoom and you will see where it says El Segundo. They've got a lot of aprtments in that community. I don't know what the prices are but since it's close to the beach it might be expensive but the fact that it's close to noisy LAX might make it cheaper too.
