And once you cross downtown/the 110 Fwy (the area between South Central and LAX), you REALLY get a perspective of how incredibly dense the city is, especially relative to other large sprawling metros (Houston, Atlanta, etc.) that are spaced out with tons of trees, undeveloped open land, etc. You do NOT see that kind of spacing when flying into L.A.; interestingly, the approach to SKY (Sky Harbor - Phoenix, AZ) is the only one I've seen that offers a similarly dense-yet-sprawling dynamic.
