Hollywood

Hollywood is a district in Los Angeles, CA. Due to its fame and cultural identity as the historical center of movie studios and movie stars, the word “Hollywood” is often used as a metonymy of American cinema, and is often interchangeably used to refer to the greater Los Angeles area in general. Today, much of the movie industry has dispersed into surrounding areas such as the Westside LA, but significant auxiliary industries, such as editing, effects, props, post-production and lighting companies remain in Hollywood, as does the backlot of Paramount Pictures.

West Hollywood

West Hollywood, a city of Los Angeles County, was incorporated on November 29, 1984. The city is well-known for its nightlife, celebrity culture, and diverse atmosphere. The area is informally referred to as “WeHo”.
The general plan describes the city as an urban village, interpreted by city residents as a neighborly, safe environment with a diversity of residents and businesses and streets that are green and walkable. West Hollywood is “urban” in the sense of traffic, nightlife, and general activity level, but the “village” component distinguishes the City from adjacent cities. This city is known as one of the largest gay villages in the United States.
Although just 1.9 square miles in size, West Hollywood is one of the highest profile communities in the Los Angeles area, full of celebrities and nightlife, and due to its central location among the generally wealthy communities west of downtown Los Angeles. Goings-on in the city and surrounding areas are broadcast daily in media around the world, including on TMZ on TV from Sunset Boulevard and Crescent Heights Avenue (intersection actually in the city of Los Angeles).
