West Hollywood | PLACE

 

West Hollywood (abbreviated WeHo), a city in Los Angeles County, California, was founded on 29 November 1984. The city, along with Beverly Hills, is surrounded completely by the City of Los Angeles. According to Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, which provides police services for the city, the total residential population is just over 37,000, however, the nighttime and weekend population swells to between 80,000 and 100,000, with a high of up to 500,000 during major events such as Halloween or the Gay & Lesbian Pride Parade. The district is one of the most notable gay villages in the United States.

Dogs romp at William S. Hart park, an off-leash facility for dogs and their owners, in West Hollywood, Calif., Tuesday, Feb. 16, 2010.

Pet shops will be permitted, however, to offer animals from shelters. Officials acknowledge the new ordinance will have little bite - no pet stores in the city currently sell animals - but they're hoping it will have a lot of bark and other municipalities will follow suit.
