Beverly Crest is in the Santa Monica Mountains .

It also borders the city of Beverly Hills to the south . To the east, the neighborhood borders Hollywood Hills West . Beverly Crest includes the Benedict Canyon, Beverly Glen, Coldwater Canyon, and Franklin Canyon neighborhoods. The canyons were created by the Los Angeles River . With the unfolding of the Santa Monica Mountains they blocked the river's original course to the south. As long as the erosion kept pace with the folding he dug his way through the mountains, as soon as this was no longer the case he had to dig a new bed a little further east.
The fact that Beverly Crest shares the zip code 90210 with Beverly Hills helped it to be marketed as the "Beverly Hills Balcony". From the 1920s it became a residential area for stars like Harold Lloyd and Rudolph Valentino . Today it is home to residential homes worth up to $ 100 million.
