Los Angeles

Welcome to sunny Los Angeles, a shiny city of reinvention where small talk always starts with a question: ‘Where are you from?’ 

Los Angeles , is the second largest city in theUnited States after New York. It is located in southern California on the Pacific coast. Americans often call by it's nickname, LA. This city is the county seat with the same name. Los Angeles means "angels" in Spanish and its inhabitants are called Angelenos (sometimes Angelinos) - theAngelins. His full name is Pueblo de Nuestra Senora la Reina deLos Ángeles del Río de Porciúncula, that is to say, "The Village of Our Lady Queen of Angels of the Portiuncula River".





The population of the municipality is 3,792,621 inhabitants according to the last census of 2010, where as it was only11,500 to 18,873. The county collects 10,179,716 inhabitants.While the urban area of ​​Los Angeles (city-region) has about 18.5 million habitants, making it the second largest city of the United States after New York. But the municipality's own Los Angeles is relatively small against the agglomeration angeline, even if it is larger than New York and Chicago. Los Angeles is an Olympic city: it hosted the Games twice (1932 and 1984). Known worldwide for its scientific and cultural activity, it intends to maintain its status as global city-region (world city-region) . L. A.is cosmopolitan and remains one of the entry points of the most prominent immigrant in the United States.






Screenwriters pitch in the shadows of the Hollywood sign. Surfers squint for the choicest Malibu wave. Then there are the true dream-chasers, the eternal optimists who join the line at Pink’s – willing to wait hours for a bite of the perfect chili dog.



Don’t care for hot dogs? A few steps away are the healthy macrobiotic delights of M Café de Chaya, where a hot dog would be met with gasps of Juicy Coutured horror. But that’s LA – a bustling mash-up of culture, community and cuisine, where clubs-du-jour lurk beside old-school delis, ramshackle markets wobble near gleaming malls, palm trees sway over car-carrying rivers, and renowned museums preen beside bubbling tar pits. 



As for the city portrayed in Oscar-winning Crash, LA’s not quite so angry – everybody’s too busy chattering on cells, checking Black berries or downward dogging to worry about the next guy. Unless it’s a casting agent, of course. Yes, the city runs a little thick on superficiality, self-absorption and sunshine, but c’mon, isn’t that the point? Have fun. Reinvent. Shop. Hike. Surf. Party. LA is yours to grab. To paraphrase Mulholland: ‘There it is. Go for it.’
