Unincorporated Watts

The landscape around Unincorporated Watts is a flat, densely developed section of the Los Angeles Basin, which has shaped both the urban form and local economy. It lies within South Los Angeles County’s continuous metropolitan fabric, close to the boundary between unincorporated communities and the City of Los Angeles. The Pacific coast is west across the basin, while the Los Angeles River corridor forms part of the area’s wider lowland geography. Watts is closely associated with the Watts Towers, a group of monumental mosaic-covered structures created by Simon Rodia during the 20th century, and the annual Watts Towers Day of the Drum and Jazz Festival.
