Del Rey (Spanish for "of the King") is a neighborhood in the Westside of Los Angeles, surrounded on three sides by Culver City, California.
According to the Mapping L.A. project of the Los Angeles Times, Del Rey is surrounded on the northwest, north, northeast and east by Culver City, on the southeast by Playa Vista, on the southwest and west by Marina del Rey and on the northwest by Venice.
Its southern bound touches the northeast corner of Playa del Rey and a small unincorporated residential area called Alsace.
The breakdown was as follows: Mexico (53.3%) and the Philippines (7.0%) were the most common places of birth for the 37.9% of the residents who were born abroad—about an average figure for Los Angeles.
[6] This was noted in Federal Housing Administration Redlining plans in the 1930s, which gave the neighborhood a low rating due to the lack of enforced racial segregation.
Thirty percent of Del Rey residents aged 25 and older had earned a four-year degree by 2000, an average figure for both the city and the county.
[14] Culver West-Alexander Park is located just up the street from the Maxella Parkette, and has tennis and pickleball courts, handball and basketball courts, an indoor rec center, and a playground; however, this park is technically within the city limits of Culver City.
