LA's a mixture of the following (in no particular order):
Detroit
Toronto
Chicago
Houston
Beijing
Bay Area
Queens, NY
Greater London
Mexico City
Tokyo/Seoul
Ironically, I don't think it has much in common with San Diego in terms of function or built environment. It's similar to southern OC, but that's not representative of LA at all.
