About Los Angeles, California

Los Angeles is defined by its sprawl and economic extremes. The entertainment industry, technology, international trade through the Port of LA, and tourism drive a massive economy — the largest metro GDP in the western United States. But LA's high cost of living, particularly housing, creates a paradox where even six-figure households can feel stretched. Beverly Hills, Bel Air, and Brentwood anchor the ultra-high-income end, while communities like Watts, South LA, and parts of the San Fernando Valley reflect very different economic realities. California's progressive state income tax takes a meaningful bite out of higher earners' take-home pay. With 55 ZIP codes in the dataset, LA's income data tells a story of opportunity and inequality coexisting in one of the world's most recognizable cities.
