    Opportunity Zones in Los Angeles County, California

    Los Angeles County has 274 designated Qualified Opportunity Zones, the most of any county in the United States, spanning neighborhoods across the city of Los Angeles and dozens of smaller incorporated cities throughout the county. Zones are concentrated in South Los Angeles, East Los Angeles, Watts, Compton, Inglewood, Long Beach, and communities along the I-110 and I-105 corridors, covering some of the most economically distressed urban areas in the nation.

    LA County's OZ investment landscape is among the most complex and highest-potential in the country. Major investment themes include multifamily housing development across South LA neighborhoods experiencing spillover demand from high-cost Westside and Coastal markets; industrial and logistics facilities adjacent to the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach; and creative economy and mixed-use projects in arts districts within OZ-eligible areas. Anchor institutions including USC, Cedars-Sinai, and the LA County hospital system provide stable employment demand in surrounding OZ neighborhoods.
