Yup, #44 (Santa Monica). Beautiful and fun place to live, close to the ocean and a lot of great city life, but you pay for it as the cost of living is pretty high. But search for "90403" on https://www.crimereports.com/ and you'll notice that there's this bubble of safety surrounding Santa Monica where very little crime happens in comparison to the rest of Los Angeles, yet you can take a short trip to any other parts of the city easily if you want.
