Drive in the Hollywood Hills of the Santa Monica Mountains
and Griffith Park to Melrose Avenue; and the north to south
boundary west of La Brea runs from about Mulholland in the
hills to Fountain Avenue, with Crescent Heights as the west
boundary south of Sunset Boulevard. The population of the
district is estimated at about 300,000 people.

colloquially to refer to the American motion picture industry
in Southern California, a term deriving from the famous
community. |
