Beverly Grove, Los Angeles

[1][2][3] The term "Beverly Grove" was first used in 2006 to unofficially refer to a small residential area that was proposed to be subject to an anti-mansionization ordinance.

[8][9][10] In the first draft of Mapping L.A., "Beverly Grove" was not included as a distinct neighborhood; rather, the area was shown as part of the Fairfax District.

[12][13] According to the Los Angeles Conservancy, the Beverly Grove area was built primarily in the 1920s and has a "combination of quiet charm and close proximity to shopping, restaurants, and museums".

The following data applies to the boundaries set by Mapping L.A.: The 2000 U.S. census counted 21,417 residents in the 1.65-square-mile neighborhood—an average of 12,990 people per square mile, fairly normal for Los Angeles.

[8] Half of Beverly Grove residents aged 25 and older possessed a four-year degree in 2000, a high rate for both the city and the county.
