I moved to Los Angeles in 1999. I couldn't find a map of all of the communities and neighborhoods of the county. I set about making my own -- exploring the vast county on foot and mass transit. Along the way, I drew maps with ink and painted them in watercolors and oil paint -- or some combination (including correction fluid). As a lefty converted to a righty, my handwriting is terrible and my maps are sometimes hard to read when reproduced or reprinted -- and so I've made these clean, digital versions for people who prefer that sort of thing.

Southeast Los Angeles County -- or just "Southeast Los Angeles" -- refers to a cluster of gateway cities and unincorporated suburbs located between South Los Angeles's Eastside, the San Gabriel Valley, and North Orange County. I wrote a primer of the region, for my series "California Fool's Gold," in 2009 and drew an earlier version of the map at that time. This one was completed a short time after. https://ericbrightwell.com/2009/04/28/california-fools-gold-a-southeast-los-angeles-primer/

Los Angeles County is by fart the most-populous of the US's 3,007 counties and county-equivalents (i.e. 64 parishes, 19 organized boroughs, 10 census areas, 41 independent cities, and the District of Columbia). It's home to the country's most densely-populated urban area, Metro Los Angeles, as well.

Santa Ana is the county seat of Orange County. It's known as "Orange County's Downtown" and is one of the few cities in that county that can truly be characterized, in part, as urban.

Boyle Heights is a neighborhood on Los Angeles's Eastside.

South Gate is a suburb in Southeast Los Angeles. The city was named in 1918 after Cudahy Ranch's South Gate Gardens. I've actually yet to explore it and when I do, changes and additions will no doubt be made to this map, which I must've drawn around 2010.

One of its affectionate neighborhood -- a reference to both its demographics and hilly topography, is "the Swish Alps." I explored it for my series, "California Fool's Gold," in 2010. https://ericbrightwell.com/2010/06/08/california-fools-gold-exploring-silver-lake-los-angeless-gayborhood/
