Beverly Hills has a strange reputation too.

Almost half of Beverly Hills is pretty dense/urban for newer cities. The Golden Triangle is a very active, urban node. Beverly Hills also has other active commerical districts, like Robertson, Beverly Drive, Wilshire, La Cieniega, and Pico. Some of these are lined with more expensive retail.
Beverly Hills cache/luxury also stretches into LA's walkable districts of West 3rd Street, Melrose and Beverly Blvd.

South of Santa Monica Blvd, even Beverly Hills's residential areas are walkable. It's full of 4-7 story condo and apartment complexes. Same is true for office and hotel development.

Someone needs to show an aerial of Beverly Hills or something. I dont think there is a a Beverly Hills equivalent, anywhere.

People are hung up on Buckhead having taller buildings. That doesn't mean anything.
