Walking Los Angeles : Downtown El Segundo

Поделиться
HTML-код
  • Опубликовано: 15 июл 2021
  • I walk through Downtown El Segundo in Los Angeles. The city in Spanish means "The Second". It is located just below Los Angeles International Airport. I focus on Main Street which has several restaurants, businesses, and commercial activity. I then walk through a small section of the residential area, which has really nice homes.

      @It's 1984: The Fact Checkers are here! That’s a tough question. In the area where the Action Kid did his walking tour, I would say crime is very low. There are areas of El Segundo which are not near the area that was toured that has crime. For instance, near LAX there is more than likely some crime issues. Running along the city of El Segundo is Imperial Highway. I would guess there is some crime there, too, but over all El Segundo is a very safe city.
