This house could easily fit in many Los Angeles neighborhoods. It looks similar to homes in my grandparents neighborhood of south-central LA.
A house on Pell Place, built in 1930.

I agree and parts of the area have always had a bit of a Southern California look/vibe to me (which is what I like about it).
