Editing Los Angeles (section)

== Geography ==

Los Angeles is located in Southern California, between the Pacific Ocean, the Los Angeles Basin, the San Fernando Valley, and the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains. The city contains coastal districts, dense urban neighborhoods, hills, valleys, industrial zones, and major transport corridors.

The city covers approximately 1,290.6 square kilometers. Its terrain includes flat basin areas, hillside communities, and mountain-adjacent districts. The Pacific coastline, the Santa Monica Mountains, the Los Angeles River, and the San Fernando Valley have shaped the city's expansion and transport routes.

Hollywood, located in central Los Angeles, became especially important to the Bucharest Butchers because of its nightlife economy, entertainment businesses, tourist traffic, private venues, and access to cash-heavy operations.
