Description: This dataset comes from the County’s Location Management System (LMS), which is a collaborative system to locations across the County. The full dataset contains over 73,000 locations, including 63,000 public (available for download below) and14,000 non-public locations (available for government entities only) with consistent attributes. Location types are broken into more than 270 unique types using three categories (cat1, cat2, cat3) that provide detailed breakdowns of the location types.Information contained in the LMS DataI have noticed that many folks don’t realize the value of this dataset because they are looking for a specific item (like “Libraries”) and don’t find it on this site – but it is part of this dataset. So I have added a full text listing so that you can know to look here. You need to extract the relevant data through queries.This dataset is the single, central repository for locations of interest to government, including basic information about those locations. So we will keep heliports in our dataset, but not dry cleaners.To download an Excel table showing the full set of Categories, download: Location Categories (includes use constraints and data owners).xlsxData SourcesData was compiled from the following data sources:211 LA County: http://211lacounty.org/HSIP Freedom from the HIFLD working group: http://www.hifldwg.org/ – some of this data is for official use only and cannot be downloaded here. Authorized users should contact me to access this data.County Services Locator: http://maps.lacounty.gov/location/searchOther GIS files.The County has launched a program to maintain this data collaboratively. Each location in the dataset has a defined page for it – stored in the link field. If information is incorrect, out of date, or the location is wrong, you can click on the link in ArcMap (an identified point will have a hyperlink icon next to it) and you will be taken to the page in the LMS for that location. A registered user can provide comments for that location, which will be sent automatically to the location owner.If you feel that you are the authoritative owner for one or more of the categories or points, please contact me (email below).

Description: The Adequate Sites Inventory identifies sites to accommodate the County’s share of the regional housing need in the unincorporated areas. The Adequate Sites Inventory is comprised of vacant and underutilized sites that have been identified through this Housing Element Update, as well as sites listed in the 2008 Housing Element. The 'TYPE' field identifies whether it is VACANT or UNDERUTILIZED, and the NOTES field identifies whether Adopted Land Use / Zoning was analysed; Proposed Land Use / Zoning; and/or sites identified in the 2008 Housing Element. See the Housing element webpage for more information--specifically, the Appendix section (click here)
Description: This layer represents the proposed Transit Oriented Districts as depicted in Figure 6.5 in the General Plan 2035. These are urban and suburban areas with access to major transit and commercial corridors that have the most potential for infill development, and are well-suited for higher density housing and mixed uses. With the exception of the East Los Angeles 3rd Street Specific Plan, all of these are 1/2 mile buffers around a major transit stop.
Description: This layer represents the opportunity areas as depicted between Figures 5.4 - 5.47 in the General Plan 2035. Depicts the following types of Opportunity Areas:Transit Centers - areas supported by transit where mixed use, and higher intensity development is encouraged.Neighborhood Centers - areas with opportunities for community-serving uses including commercial-only, mixed use, and other related uses which play a central role in a community.Corridors- areas along boulevards that provide connections between neighborhoods and employment centers - emphasizing commercial or mixed use, and opportunities for design improvement.Industrial Flex Districts - industrial areas that provide opporunities for non-industrial uses and mixed uses where appropriate. Also lighter industrial uses (like office/professional uses) that are compatible with residential uses.Industrial Opportunity Areas - economically viable industrial and employment-rich lands in unincorporated areas with an existing community-based plan or in the process of getting one. Further considerations should be given to these areas to be mapped as Employment Protection Districts.Rural Town Centers- focal points of rural communities, serving the daily needs of residents and providing local employment opportunities.
Description: School District Boundaries for Los Angeles County.
Please note: There are two types of school distrricts. The first type is a split district - a school district that separates the elementary school districts from the middle and high school district. The second type, a unified school district, combines all three types of schools.
In this dataset each unified district has its own polygon, and the split districts have a polygon for each combination of elementary and middle/high school district.
Description: The Provisional Health District Layer contains Department of Public Health Health Districts as of 2011, which are aggregates of 2010 Census Tracts. Furthermore, Health Districts comprise the building blocks of Los Angeles County Service Planning Areas (SPAs). The Provisional Health Districts were created by the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health for planning purposes and are subject to change.

Description: The BASA project was developed to provide a common geographic boundary for reporting departmental statistics for unincorporated areas to the Board of Supervisors. The CIO and the LA County Enterprise GIS group worked with the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors Unincorporated Area and Field Deputies to establish names that reflect as best as possible the general name preferences of residents and historical names of areas. A Board Motion will establish these area names as “Board Approved.” BASAs differ from the more informal “Community” geographies because:They are primarily focused on broad statistics and reporting, not mapping of communities.They represent board approved geographies comprised of Census block groups split by cities.They must cover the entire unincorporated CountyThere can be no holes or overlapping areasThe BASAs were created using Census Block Groups split by cities (e.g. "Split Block Groups") as a geographic building block. This allows users to leverage the rich information provided by the US Census Bureau to better report statistics, including rates from the decennial census and population estimates.In the City of Los Angeles, the LA City Neighborhood file was overlaid on the Block Groups and boundaries assigned using the centroid of the block group - therefore, while the names of the BASAs in LA City match the neighborhood file, the boundaries are not the same.Additionally, BASAs are to be named according to the following recommended naming conventions:All names will be assumed to begin with “Unincorporated” (e.g. Unincorporated El Camino Village). They will not be part of the Statistical Geography Name (so the name of the Statistical Area would be “El Camino Village”).Names will not contain “Island” – beginning each name with “Unincorporated” will distinguish an area from any surrounding cities. There may be one or more exceptions for certain small areas (e.g. “Bandini Islands”)A forward slash implies an undetermined boundary between two areas within a statistical geography (e.g. Westfield/Academy Hills or View Park/Windsor Hills)Certain established names may include hyphens (e.g. Florence-Firestone)Aliases may be defined in parentheses (e.g. Unincorporated Long Beach (Bonner/Carson Park))
