It is a tiny ass space base to the south of LAX. You would literally never know its there unless you were looking for it on a GPS. They have a commissary, exchange, and a couple of buildings that are shaped odd and made out of all glass. If you want go live "on base" you have go live on an Army post 30 minutes away. Now multiply that 30 minutes by wonderful 405 traffic and you are leaving for work at least 2 hours early just to sit through traffic.....no thank you. The only other AF installations around there are Edwards, to the north of Hollywood or March in San Bernardino. Vandenberg is north, but by about 3 hours in between Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo.
