LOL...Thanks for that laugh...
What did you possibly base that on?
The city limits are depicted on most maps...Look it up and educated yourself. Wha'd d'ya think Los Angeles means? It's a city..Ya know what I mean?
Do you live in LA?
The poster has a (very) valid point.
The numbers could mean anything, depending whether “LA” is defined to include Riverside, Compton, Long Beach, Hollywood, South-Central, East LA.
The section from Broadway downtown, out to Mid-Wilshire, is hardly representative of Southern California - yet that is in fact, “Los Angeles” proper.
