There is no city called "Hollywood" in California. Hollywood is a section of the City of Los Angeles.
You're right, only North and West Hollywood are their own cities. LA is funny like that; you never know when you're in the city of LA or in another city inside LA county.
Which goes a long way toward explaining why this country is so royally screwed up.
If there were more of them like Kucinich, Waters, Grijalva, Lee, Conyers that acutally have courage to stand up to the neo-cons that are destroying America, we'd be alot better off. I know you don't think so but take my word for it, I know more about this stuff than 99% of people in this country.

Einstein once said, 'The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.'
It is the poor who habitually elect Democrats---yet they are still poor...
Boulder, CO (it is known as 'The Republic of Boulder'). Even people from Berkley thinks the Boulder people are too extreme. You get dirty looks for eating meat in town and people will shout down anyone whom they disagree with.
San Francisco!! This is home of most anti-American people and extremists and eco-terrorists.
Madison, WI. Not sure why, but it is liberal.
Boston, MA is very left-wing extreme.
New Haven, Connecticut is so liberal, they have an "illegal aliens welcome home" policy.
Seattle, WA is home of some of the most left-wing companies (Microsoft and Starbucks).
New Orleans is basically 'welfare town USA'. Very liberal.... whatever is left of it. >_<

Damn! you were right again. I was always under the impression that North Hollywood and West Hollywood were independent cities and that part of Hollywood was it's own city and the other part was LA.
Venice, CA. (Yes, I realize we are a district in LA. Our address is Venice, not LA however.)
One of the most accepting places I've ever lived. Nobody cares what you look like or dress like as long as you're a nice person. We have many wealthy citizens that don't have a problem helping those in need, including the homeless. We cherish our mom & pop stores. I've even heard there are laws that ban chain stores & restaurants on certain streets because people feel they cheapen our community. We love the arts. We embrace the medicinal cannibus industry. We try to ride our bicycles more than we drive cars.
