It is also important to note that many L.A. suburban areas have quite high densities, over 10,000 per square mile in many Valley neighborhoods for example. In the cities bordering L.A. on the southeast, Huntington Park, South Gate, etc., densities are even higher. Lots of immigrants sharing apartments and houses to save money. 10+ people per unit, etc. These average suburban densities in L.A. are higher than the New York City suburbs, and probably San Francisco suburbs as well. The massive population density of Manhattan conceals the fact that the middle and outer suburbs are not greatly dense.
