West Los Angeles is a term for two residential and commercial areas in the city of Los Angeles, California, mapped differently by different sources and on opposite sides of the Interstate 5 Freeway. Each of them lies within the larger Westside region of Los Angeles County.
According to the Mapping L.A. website of the Los Angeles Times, West Los Angeles lies south of Santa Monica Boulevard, west of Beverly Glen Boulevard, north of Pico Boulevard and east of Sepulveda Boulevard, but the Automobile Club of Southern California does not mark boundaries on its map but centers the neighborhood south of Santa Monica Boulevard, west of Interstate 405, north of Olympic Boulevard and east of Barrington Avenue.
In 2003, a Los Angeles Times correspondent noted that:
Her report on the meaning of West Los Angeles also included Rancho Park and the Westdale Trousdale area near National Boulevard and Barrington Avenue.
Mapping L.A. gives the population of its 1.05-square-mile neighborhood as 12,659 according to the 2000 U.S. census, with a rise to 13,582 in 2008 as estimated by the Los Angeles Department of City Planning. Its density of 12,061 people was about average for the city of Los Angeles. It had an especially high percentage of white people compared with the county at large, 76.7%, and the neighborhood was not especially diverse for the county. Others ethnicities were Asian, 11.4%; Latino, 5.3%; black, 2.3%, and other, 4.1%.

Los Angeles was recently declared a Bike Friendly Community; Santa Monica has been one for over three years. That doesn't mean either one is a bicycle paradise. This is what happened on just one typical ride through SaMo and the Westside, showing the sort of things we have to contend with on a daily basis — form careless and cut-off drivers to blocked bike lanes and near doorings. I could have shown one more typical L.A. experience, with the bike lane completely blocked for blocks for a movie shoot. But the video *might* have shown someone ignoring the orange cones and riding through anyway. And we wouldn't want to encourage that, would we?

In 2009, Te-Money tragically lost one of his artists, Dolla, 21, when he was shot and killed at the Beverly Center in Los Angeles. Dolla had already worked with Lil Wayne, T-Pain and Akon, and was considered one of the best new talents in hip-hop at the time of his death. The shooter, Aubrey Berry, was tried for first degree murder but a jury acquitted him in 2010. Date: March...

go west la granada, el musical
Me and lady sittin on the bench tonight
Drinkin' warm beer in the soft summer air
Lookin' across the city those starlit hills
Talkin' about those crazy rich people livin' up there on stilts
Must be somethin'
Must be something to live that way
Well we're just across town
A couple of hundred million miles away
In east L.A.
Up early in the morning workin' 9 to 5
We both work full time but we survive
We go out weekends have a pretty good time
We got lots of friends we don't need to spend a dime
Who's to say
Who's to say we don't do okay
Well we're just across town
A couple of hundred million miles away
In East L.A.
So I'm sorry if we can't stay
But it's past midnight and we gotta work today
We gotta be on our way
