Second-largest city in the United States, after New York City. Located in Southern California and home to about 9 million people in about 4 counties. One of the most (if not the most) diverse cities in the United States. The largest city in California and a major financial center for the Pacific Rim. Competes with New York City as the cultural capital of the United States; most movies and television shows are made in coordinated efforts between Los Angeles and New York, although most movie studios have their headquarters' in Los Angeles.
LA has about a billion suburbs that are essentially considered part of Los Angeles as a single city, although the city itself has only a population of some 3.7 million. Los Angeles is notorious for smog and gang-related crime; seperate inner-city working-class suburbs such as Compton or Long Beach have been made the subject of rap songs talking about the crime levels that have gained some notoriety and earned LA one of it's less-enviable titles as "the Gang Capital of the World".
Fortunately, the beautiful Pacific coastline and the numerous beaches and tropical climate offset some of the not-so-good parts of the city. LA also has an awesome music scene, a great clubbing sector, and countless appreciative cultural institutions such as the Getty Museum to visit that provide the city with a depth, culture and history that are enviable. It's an awesome city. Watch out for the traffic though.

Person who has never been to Los Angeles: Man LA is such a shithole, it has so much smog and traffic and gang-related crime
Me: Have you ever been there
Person who has never been to Los Angeles: No but I saw Training Day
Me: Die please

Get the j lo mug.An oasis of social ineptitude located in the mountains of northern New Mexico. Has more PhD's per capita than anywhere else, and a self satisfied and pretentious attitude. The majority of the population wears socks with sandals and is either vastly over payed, or not payed enough. Incredibly dull, unless nuclear fission gets you hard.
