Canoga Park
The simplest permit environment in the west Valley. Lower-cost builds, faster plan check, and a real concentration of garage-to-JADU conversions.

northeast la
Highland Park
Bungalow heaven + dense HPOZ coverage. ADU permits take 2-4 months longer here than non-HPOZ LA, but the lots and demand make it worth it.

Hollywood Hills
Highest per-project ADU spend in LA. Most ADUs here are owner-use, not rental — guest houses, studios, in-law units.

downtown la
Downtown LA
Mostly commercial / mixed-use. Few R1 lots. Adaptive Reuse is the real residential expansion path here.
