West Hollywood is a city that is proud to stand out. Its irregularly shaped outline tells of its unique beginnings as a city carved out by those who refused to invisibly fit in. With passion and determination, we’ve built an open yet sophisticated haven that values fresh thinking and individuality. The rebellious and inspired creativity of the people who live and work here has put West Hollywood at the leading edge of culture, entertainment and design. Here, the elegant and the outrageous, the refined and the radical come together to make their debuts in ways that are new, unexpected and sometimes revolutionary. At present, the city has grown to 39,000 residents and remains Los Angeles’ hottest destination for the entertainment industry with its boutique hotels, celebrity-owned restaurants, unparalleled nightlife and shopping, and events like the HBO Emmy Party, Sir Elton John’s Annual Oscar Party, the Vanity Fair Oscar Party, LA PRIDE and the world's largest Halloween street party – West Hollywood Costume Carnaval. West Hollywood continues to be an example for progressive, creative individuals on the cutting edge of trends and new ideas, working together as a community in one of the most intriguing cities in the country.
