Yo, another episode of In A Minute with Evan Lovey, coming to you live from the I am studios here in the heart of Los Angeles.

This is another episode sponsored by Saridos Auto Square.

And I want to tell you, you know where the heart of Los Angeles really is? My neighborhood.

Your neighborhood. All of our neighborhoods. Because you know why?

Los Angeles has 572 neighborhoods and counting. I'm going to get into the

math on that but this episode's more than just the count. It's about to me what makes Los Angeles what it is.

The core of each neighborhood is a community. And there's a personality.

Fun facts, something that makes each neighborhood unique.

And what I'm going to do today is take 30 facts, about 30 of those neighborhoods,

in hopes to eventually get to all of the wonderful

neighborhoods in Los Angeles including mine and including yours. So this is

part one of 30 facts about 30 Los Angeles neighborhoods. All right y'all let's get into it. So we start with something that happened in LA this week.

The inspiration for this episode goes out to my man Nate Schulman.

He's a graphic design lecturer at Cal State Long Beach and he approached me

to show me a project he was working on, classifying all the neighborhoods in Los Angeles.

And I couldn't believe the number but looking at it it makes

sense let me tell you this. So there's standard cities within LA all right

this is cities with their own elected officials.

Glendale, Whittier, Alhambra, there are 88 of those. That is a firm number.

Then you have unincorporated areas where the Board of Supervisors, County departments provide municipal services and 65% of the county, which is 2,600 square miles is unincorporated.

These are places like Baldwin Hills, New Hall, South El Monte,

and there are 187 of those neighborhoods.
