Are You Moving to Los Angeles?

  • When Los Angeles was founded in 1781, its full name was “El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora Reina de Los Ángeles Sobre el Río Porciúncula.” (Imagine saying that five times fast.) Loosely translated, the original Spanish name meant “The town of our lady queen of the Angels on the Porciúncula River.”
  • In 1892, oil was discovered near today's Dodger Stadium.
  • By 1923, one-quarter of the world's oil was produced in the Los Angeles Basin. Now, the basin still ranks as the third-largest oil field in the United States.
  • Los Angeles is known for its mild weather year-round, but when it rains, it pours. In 1926, a gauge in the San Gabriel Mountains was filled with an inch of rain in just one minute. In February of 1978, almost one foot of rain fell in one day.

What's the best time of year to move?
