The bus usually takes 1 - 2 hours to get to anywhere in L.A. Santa Monica and Venice are expensive and Silverlake/Los Feliz area are around the same, maybe a little less expensive because of how close they are to hollywood and downtown. I would say rent a room a mile or so away from UCLA or somewhere where the bus passes alot.

Here is he bus system map. http://media.metro.net/riding_metro/maps/images/System_Map.pdf

the #2 bus seems to go straight from silverlake/los feliz area to UCLA. google it and look at the bus schedule

I heard Santa Monica has a great bus system. I am from LA and know about commuting and traffic, I HATE the bus in general but with a car you worry about insurance, parking and gas.you will save LOTS OF $$$$ and I think you should take the bus because the quarterly pass is only $50
