Los Angeles (IPA: /lɑˈsændʒələs/;or /los ˈanxeles/ in Spanish) is the largest city in the state of California and the second-largest in the United States.[1] Often abbreviated as L.A., it is rated an alpha world city having an estimated population of 3.8 million[2] and spanning over 469.1 square miles (1,214.9 square kilometers) in Southern California. Additionally, the Greater Los Angeles metropolitan area is home to nearly 17,776,000 people who hail from all over the globe and speak more than a hundred different languages. Los Angeles is the seat of Los Angeles County, the most populous and most diverse county[3] in the United States. Its inhabitants are known as "Angelenos" (IPA: /ændʒəˈlinoʊz/).
Los Angeles was founded in the year 1781 by Spanish governor Felipe de Neve as El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Ángeles de Porciúncula (The Village of Our Lady, the Queen of the Angels of Porciúncula). It became a part of Mexico in 1821 following its independence from Spain. In 1848 at the end of the Mexican-American War, Los Angeles and California became part of the United States. It was incorporated as a municipality on April 4, 1850 — five months before California achieved statehood.
Los Angeles is one of the world's most prominent centers of culture, technology, and international trade. It is home to renowned institutions covering a broad range of professional and cultural fields. The city and its immediate vicinity lead the world in producing popular entertainment — such as motion picture, television, video games and recorded music — which forms the base of Los Angeles' international fame and global status.
Follow Los Angeles traffic. It is so gorgeous from the sky.

I agree. New york ... ( 2 months ago by drerk)
I agree. New york is sweet and its definately a more important city (being the business capital). Its a very unique city, but it doesnt change the fact that New York is cold and humid all year long and over crowded in lots of areas. LA is a lot more livable: Less traffic, better weather, warm ocean, all landscapes, etc.
Its just my opinion. Im not trying to start shit with anyone.
And yes, immigration is a problem, but its not exactly why California is growing fast. Many people like it here.
NYC has NO effect ... ( 2 months ago by Luckypet4747)
NYC has NO effect at all to the skyline!
Either Chicago!
Los Angeles have a VERY big effect in the skyline.
Every angle you look at Downtown LA, buildings seems like its missing.
Example-If you look at LA skyline from HOllywood, it shows only 5buildings.
From SAn DIego to LA, theres like 10buildings.
SanDIego to LAX, most of them are shown.
Btw, LAX have a skyline too...You guys dont know how much skylines LA have.
So LA has diffenently the most unique skyline.

For everyone in Los Angeles
If you are lost in a place, what you have to do first is to find the light of the US Bank Tower(Because its brighter than the moon if your close to it) and go to the US Bank TOwer and call somebody to help you.
NYC is a very dangerous city.
You can never see the Empire Stage Building with so many buildings in the way.
DO NOT LIVE IN NYC IF YOUR MARRIED
Business is what make you break up.
Husband goes work too much, so the girl will start loosing love
Young people should ... ( 2 months ago by Luckypet4747)
Young people should live in LA.
LA is what brings you love. NYC is for guys doing business too much, not caring and giving love for their family.
"LA is the center of the world"
You can drive to SAN Fran, SAn Diego, Las Vegas, or take airplane.
SO LA is truely one of the most im portant city in the world. It brings love and care and happiness.
SO EVERYONE must RESPECT Los Angeles.
A city isnt based on the skyline. Its based on the care, love, peace, compassion, family, and safetyness.

LA is so ugly?
If you hate LA, then stop using the internet.
LA gave the birth to the Internet.
Dude...Gangs, Crime, wtf?
There are gangs and crime because LA have a lot of place thats fun and gangs love hanging out a lot. Crime? California is the most popoulus state in the US and Americans always do criminal things. The more crowded place=The more people you can kill or rob.
It has nothing to do with the city and area. Its because of too many people living in California.
Youre stupid.

SF is a nice city with a better city with good fast foods, but I went to SF and we left at the 2nd day of tour because there are too many lesbians and gays in the street.
But I am going to SF and hopefully there are no more gays and les around the street!

Yah. You live in a gay city.
Stop being jealous because all teh west coast cities are the best
If California have gay cities, then why are there more smart people like Asians moving into Cali?
LA is the best city to move in.
1Hour drive to SanDiego. 4Hour Drive to Las Vegas. 8Hour drive to SF. 9Hour Drive to Sacramento.
Dude, its not like NYC. You need to take airport wherever you go.
California have something called "FAST TRANSPORTATION" and East coasters have NO fast transportations!
man, you are stupid ... ( 2 months ago by rudeboyjohn)
man, you are stupid, thats where all the dumb people are...LA. Also, all the faggots and queers are rushing to YOUR state to get married, you dumb fuck. You talk about driving everywhere in SoCal, thats because you have to to drive. NYC, everything is right here, you dont have to leave the city. CA has very poor mass transit and the worst traffic, why does NYC have 3 times as many people but we can still move much better here than you can in LA? I've been all over the West, its how it is

I know SF is beautiful and I know SD is beautiful. Theyre both clean. You know why? It's because they are not the most popular cities and there is nothing for gangs to hang out. That is why LA is so populated and trashed by gangs.
You shouldnt just say LA is ugly. You need "reasons"
REAL reasons.

Gay people have all the right to marry just as much as straight people do aswell.

I'm with you bro. LA is a fucking awesome city. They're just jealous because the COST OF LIVING is sky-high in NYC (it's sky-high in LA too but at least it's warm and sunny!). In NYC good luck getting around in your car. In LA, you NEED a car.
Ya, you either NEED ... ( 1 month ago by Luckypet4747)
Ya, you either NEED a car in LA
or you WALK to Downtown and find a taxi
or CALL a person to pick you up.
And people HATE LA because it doesnt have a giant skyline, but it doesnt mean LA is a
BAD city!
People just make stuff up to be hypocrite!
They need REASONS. I mean REAL reasons.

Yeah, L.A. is a nice place to visit for football matches (GALAXY!!! BECKHAM!!!), Amoeba Music, Chinatown, Universal, etc. But if I had to LIVE in a city, LA would be in last place behind San Francisco, San Diego, Palm Springs, etc.
I totally agree ... ( 2 weeks ago by Luckypet4747)
I totally agree with you.
But GREATER LA is better.
I would live in San Diego, then go LA every weekend to buy foods there.
San Diego groceries and stores are too expensive, but its cleaner and the weather is better. They also have outlet or outside malls.
But LA is a place to shop, eat, and visit.
LA IS safe because your ALWAYS in the car.
LA is a bad place to live because of the HOUSES, not the AIR and SMOGS.
The air and smogs only cause you to die a year faster.
But LA ROCKS!

Chinatown, Historic Filipinotown, Koreatown, Little Armenia, Little Ethiopia, Tehrangeles, Little India, Little Tokyo, and Thai Town
Hollywood, LAX, Walt Disney Hall, Staples Center, Capial Records, Hollywood Bowl, the Highway Spam, and this 2nd wierd downtown place in LA, are all famous and beautiful buildins.
Builings like Hollwood Bowl,Concert Hall, StaplesCener, Capital Records, & LAX, changes color every day. Staples have beams.
