Koreatown, Los Angeles

The vast area considered Koreatown stretches from Hollywood to the north down to Crenshaw and Pico Union on the south. Pico Union on the east, to Mid City on the west.

Some factoids:

  • Koreans are not the majority in the area. The biggest group is Latinos… because this is Los Angeles. 🙂 It’s like that in most working class places.
  • The formal extent of Koreatown is far smaller than the actual area that people consider K-Town.
  • K-Towns roots go back to the 1900s. Look up Dosan Ahn Chang Ho.
