West Covina
About
West Covina, in the eastern SGV along the 10, is classic suburbia: the Plaza West Covina mall, Costco, chain restaurants and houses with backyards. Asian restaurants are growing in number, but for visitors it's mostly a drive-through.

The 'half-American life' transition zone.
This city has its own TV show:
all four seasons of the CW's Crazy Ex-Girlfriend are set in West Covina,
and the theme song is honest:
'Only two hours from the beach! (Four in traffic.)'
In the show, people always meet up at the boba shop,
more realistic than a documentary.
'Since moving to West Covina,
I've been living my dream American life:
a bigger backyard, a Costco and an In-N-Out.
But every Saturday morning,
my car still drives itself back to Valley Blvd.'
My car still autopilots back to Valley Blvd.
A halfway house to American living: Costco, In-N-Out and a big backyard.
