I moved to the SFV in 1954 as a child and left in 1974 as an adult. I recognized 90% of the districts named. I think the others didn't existed before 1974. I haven't been back in 30 years. During my time spent there I lived in Van Nuys, Granada Hills, Sepulveda (now called North Hills) and Shermn Oaks. It was a great place to grow up THEN, but I don't think so now.
I was living down the street from B of A bank on Laurel Canyon in North Hollywood on February 28th, 1997. I had just moved there from Sherman Oaks.The North Hollywood bank robbery unfolded and our entire neighborhood was shut down. I will never forget it
