Are you looking to live in or move to Los Angeles, CA?

Los Angeles has been known by many names over the years. Everything from La La Land to Tinseltown. But perhaps the most famous name for it is “The City of Angels”. Originally founded on September 4, 1781 by a group of 14 families that journeyed more than a thousand miles to find a pristine piece of the coast to settle for their small farming community. Within 100 years Los Angeles had morphed into a world-class metropolis. And around the turn of the 20th Century, the American film industry made its home in Hollywood and Los Angeles’ place as a major American city was cemented forever. And by the 1980s LA became the second largest city in the country (surpassing Chicago) and remains the second largest city in the country only behind NYC today. The combination of its incredible weather and its growing industries in everything from aerospace and entertainment to tourism and fashion makes LA a fantastic place to put down your roots!
