This beautiful and vibrant city boasts excitement and offers many options in Los Angeles rentals from cheap apartments to high end luxury homes fit for celebrity life that all make it one of the best locations to settle on the west coast. Located in Southern California, Los Angeles is not only known as the entertainment capital of the American industry, but also as that of the world. L.A. boasts of a great ethnic diversity, an expansive metropolis, a great heritage displayed in over 100 museums, and a Mediterranean climate that makes it a paradise of great weather. Los Angeles is the place to be. In fact, L.A. is the only North American city that prides itself for hosting the Summer Olympics twice.

What is the history of Los Angeles?

Los Angeles was founded in September 4th 1791 by Felipe de Neve, a Spanish governor at the time. It was founded after 44 villagers from the Mexican provinces of Sinaloa and Sonora came to live in what is now Downtown Los Angeles. Two of these settlers were Spaniards while the others comprised of Blacks, Indians, and Mestizos of diverse ancestry. The town was named El Pueblo de Nuestra Senora la Reina de Los Angeles de Porcincula, meaning “Our Lady the Queen of the angels of Porcincula”. L.A. became part of United States in 1847 after being captured by US forces. At first, there were a handful of families in the town but the discovery of oil in 1892 massively fueled the growth of the city.

How is the weather in Los Angeles?

Southern California’s climate is often referred to as the “perfect climate” for a good reason. Los Angeles city experiences a Subtropical-Mediterranean climate that gives it many sunny days with warmth and gentle breezes especially in the summer. The humidity of the city is low and there is relatively little or no rain. In Spring, you can expect to find averagely high temperatures that linger in the comfortable mid 70s but with no summer’s overwhelming smog and winter’s prevalent rain. In summer, you can expect an almost dry and warm season with average high temperatures that range in the mid 80s. The autumn temperatures average in the high 70s and low 80s.Winters are mild with average temperatures on the upper 60s, which is definitely better than the freezing cold experienced in other major U.S. cities such as New York.

How do I get around town?
