Love Local, Buy Local Program

Culver City prides itself on its authentic “small town” feel with unique restaurants, services and specialty retailers.  Buying local maintains our community character, supports our local economy and continues to ensure quality of life that makes Culver City an exceptional place to live, work and enjoy.

Support Local

Local business owners care about Culver City and their customers.  Supporting our local businesses maintains a sense of community, provide jobs and supports a wide range of other local businesses too. When you choose a Culver City business, you are supporting our local economy.   Taxable dollars spent in Culver City help benefit important City-provided services like public safety, senior services, after-school programs, street maintenance, streetlights and parks. Whether in Downtown, West Washington, Culver City Arts District, Westfield Culver City, or along any of our commercial corridors, our one-of-a-kind businesses are an integral part of our distinctive character.

Choose Community

Going out to dinner? Need something for the house?  Purchasing a gift for a special person?  Sending flowers?  Choose Culver City!  We have hundreds of small businesses that provide personal and exceptional products and services.

When you choose Culver City, you choose community.
