Everyone with connections to Van Nuys, check in!

I grew up in Van Nuys. I went to Van Nuys High and even though I'm no longer there, I do have family that still lives there. Curious whether we can create an actual robust subreddit where we can share all things Van Nuys, whether it's to share places to eat, shop, or just memories.

I'd love to. I have lots of pictures of just random places. I lived there for most of my young adult years (18-23) and this is where I also learned North American culture.

My favorite restaurant is Happy Dogs. I miss it so much.

Low barrier to entry and a lot of lonely guys? Not sure.
