I am a walker in Los Angeles County, chiefly southeastern L.A. County/Gateway Cities. My edits are based primarily on what I see on walks, though other edits are based on my experience driving by/through them or aerial imagery.

Chief areas of editing interest:

  • Land use
  • Land use/ground cover in utility rights-of-way, particularly under electrical transmission towers in urban areas
  • Adding missing parks & adding information to existing parks
  • Adding information to schools
  • Reclassifying highway=residential in non-residential areas to highway=unclassified
  • Road hierarchy, names, & cardinal direction prefixes
  • Construction areas & demolished buildings

My rule for trunk road classification in the L.A. County basin/Orange County flatlands: if Beach Boulevard (CA 39) isn’t highway=trunk, then no other road is.
