About Los Angeles 

Los Angeles is officially the City of Los Angeles, although it is more often referred to simply by its initials: L.A. Los Angeles is the largest city in California and has an estimated population of nearly four million people, making it the second most populated city in the United States, and the third most populated city in North America. Nestled in a basin in Southern California and adjacent to the Pacific Ocean, Los Angeles boasts mountains as tall as 10,000 feet high and beautiful desert scenery. 

No matter what you’re looking for, Los Angeles has it to offer — and in spades. Are sports your thing? Great, you have plenty of teams to root for. More into live music? You won’t find a much better music scene than in L.A. And if you consider yourself a foodie? You’re in luck. The food scene in Los Angeles is unrivaled. We’ll talk more about these later.

Your Los Angeles Neighbors 

If you’re looking for diversity where you live, look no further than Los Angeles. The city’s incredibly diverse population makes it an incredibly warm and inviting place to live. In fact, Los Angeles is one of the few cities in the United States where there is no majority ethnicity. Although Hispanics represent more than 45 percent of the Los Angeles population, with Caucasians coming in slightly behind at just under 30 percent, there is a huge range of personalities, cultures, views and perspectives that give Los Angeles a unique vibe that simply can’t be found anywhere else. 

This unique element carries over into the way Los Angelinos work, as well. Most of the careers that you will find in L.A. don’t require you to work the traditional “9 to 5” schedule. As such, you will often find that residents have much more freedom to work outside of the office or take a walk or beach break during the middle of the day to clear their minds and shift their focus.

Homes for Sale in Los Angeles  

You’ve probably heard it before, but Los Angeles really is huge — on a scale that is hard to understand until you have experienced it for yourself. Spanning more than 500 square miles, Los Angeles has more than 4 million residents — meaning that the neighborhoods are spread out much more than what you would likely experience in most major metro areas.

The Los Angeles real estate market is also competitive, and can be expensive. As such, it is important to work with an experienced real estate agent who can discuss your individual goals and needs with you, to help you make an informed decision that is right for you and your family
