I think you're splitting hairs here.
You can hear the 101 fwy from Reseda, and in fact has an on ramp/off ramp called Reseda Blvd. Taking that ramp north from the 101 puts you into in the heart of Reseda in about 30 seconds.
True but I’m not splitting hairs; the writer is. A freeway running through the yard.
My favorite Mexican restaurant is in Reseda. Las Fuentes. If you can find a place to park and somehow grab a table, good eats.
