Another similarity that L.A. and Detroit share is industry, particularly the auto industry. L.A. was the North American home of all of the major Japanese automakers. I think only Honda of America is left after the recent departures of Toyota, Nissan, and Mitsubishi. Ford even briefly moved Lincoln-Mercury to L.A. from Dearborn in the late 1990s.
As for other industries, I think the story of Motown moving to L.A. is well known.
