East Hawthorne

The landscape around East Hawthorne is a level, densely developed stretch of the Los Angeles Basin, which has shaped both its rectilinear streets and its place in Southern California’s metropolitan economy. This area lies within the City of Hawthorne, southwest of central Los Angeles and inland from the Pacific coast. Hawthorne has long been linked with aerospace and engineering; SpaceX maintains its headquarters and manufacturing site in the city. It also holds a place in American music history as the hometown of the Wilson brothers, founders of the Beach Boys. Major freeways and the wider Los Angeles transport network make this an intensely urban part of the basin.
