This is the zoning layer for UNINCORPORATED areas of Los Angeles County. It does not draw at all scales because there are lots of records (so basically for speed and performance), so it is scale dependent. Also, why only for UNINCORPORATED areas? Because there are 88 cities in L.A. County and they each manage their zoning and land use information separately.

For more complete information, see Title 22 (Planning and Zoning) of the Los Angeles County Code, or visit the Department of Regional Planning's website here.

PLEASE NOTE: Santa Catalina Island is not included in this dataset. It is in a separate data layer since Catalina has specific zoning categories that differ from the Countywide zoning categories found in Title 22. The Department of Regional Planning performs all land use planning functions for the UNINCORPORATED areas of Los Angeles County. Our services include long range planning, land development counseling, project/case intake and processing, environmental review and zoning enforcement for each of our County UNINCORPORATED communities.What is an UNINCORPORATED area of Los Angeles County?There are 88 incorporated cities within Los Angeles County, each with its own city council. The areas that are NOT part of these cities are considered to be UNINCORPORATED County territory. More than 65 percent of Los Angeles County is UNINCORPORATED. For the approximately 1 million people living in these areas, the Board of Supervisors and County departments provide the municipal services.LAST UPDATED: 4/9/25 for several zone changes related to the South Bay, West San Gabriel, and Westside Area Plan updates.

Countywide layer which divides the County of Los Angeles into 11 unique areas for planning purposes of the unincorporated areas. This layer is referred to as 'DRP Planning Areas.'The General Plan provides goals and policies to achieve countywide planning objectives for the unincorporated areas, and serves as the foundation for all community-based plans, such as area plans, community plans, and coastal land use plans. Area plans focus on land use and policy issues that are specific to the Planning Area. Community plans cover smaller geographic areas within the Planning Area, and address neighborhood and/or community-level policy issues. Coastal land use plans are components of local coastal programs, and regulate land use and establish policies to guide development in the coastal zone. Please refer to the Planning Areas Framework chapter in the General Plan here.LAST UPDATED: 4/9/25 for a slight boundary change related to the South Bay, Area Plan update (in the community of Del Aire).

Important Note:The metadata description below mentions the Regional Housing Needs Assessment (or RHNA). Part of meeting RHNA Eligibility is satisfying a list of criteria set by the State of California that needs to be met in order to qualify. This dataset contains both RHNA Eligible and non-RHNA Eligible sites. Non-RHNA Eligible sites are those that didn't quite meet the eligibility criteria set by the state, but will be still eligible for Rezoning per Department of Regional Planning guidelines, and thus represents a full picture of ALL sites that are eligible for Rezoning. The official Housing Element Rezoning layer that was certified by the State of California is located here, but it should be noted that this layer only contains sites that are RHNA Eligible.IntroductionThis metadata is broken up into different sections that provide both a high-level summary of the Housing Element and more detailed information about the data itself with links to other resources. The following is an excerpt from the Executive Summary from the Housing Element 2021 – 2029 document:The County of Los Angeles is required to ensure the availability of residential sites, at adequate densities and appropriate development standards, in the unincorporated Los Angeles County to accommodate its share of the regional housing need--also known as the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA). Unincorporated Los Angeles County has been assigned a RHNA of 90,052 units for the 2021-2029 Housing Element planning period, which is subdivided by level of affordability as follows:Extremely Low / Very Low (<50% AMI) - 25,648Lower (50 - 80% AMI) - 13,691Moderate (80 - 120% AMI) - 14,180Above Moderate (>120% AMI) - 36,533Total - 90,052NOTES - Pursuant to State law, the projected need of extremely low income households can be estimated at 50% of the very low income RHNA. Therefore, the County’s projected extremely low income can be estimated at 12,824 units. However, for the purpose of identifying adequate sites for RHNA, no separate accounting of sites for extremely low income households is required. AMI = Area Median IncomeDescriptionThe Sites Inventory (Appendix A) is comprised of vacant and underutilized sites within unincorporated Los Angeles County that are zoned at appropriate densities and development standards to facilitate housing development. The Sites Inventory was developed specifically for the County of Los Angeles, and has built-in features that filter sites based on specific criteria, including access to transit, protection from environmental hazards, and other criteria unique to unincorporated Los Angeles County. Other strategies used within the Sites Inventory analysis to accommodate the County’s assigned RHNA of 90,052 units include projected growth of ADUs, specific plan capacity, selected entitled projects, and capacity or planned development on County-owned sites within cities. This accounts for approximately 38 percent of the RHNA. The remaining 62 percent of the RHNA is accommodated by sites to be rezoned to accommodate higher density housing development (Appendix B).Caveats:This data is a snapshot in time, generally from the year 2021. It contains information about parcels, zoning and land use policy that may be outdated. The Department of Regional Planning will be keeping an internal tally of sites that get developed or rezoned to meet our RHNA goals, and we may, in the future, develop some public facing web applications or dashboards to show the progress. There may even be periodic updates to this GIS dataset as well, throughout this 8-year planning cycle.Update History:12/18/24 - Following the completion of the annexation to the City of Whittier on 11/12/24, 27 parcels were removed along Whittier Blvd which contained 315 Very Low Income units and 590 Above Moderate units. Following a joint County-City resolution of the RHNA transfer to the city, 247 Very Low Income units and 503 Above Moderate units were taken on by Whittier. 10/23/24 - Modifications were made to this layer during the updates to the South Bay and Westside Area Plans following outreach in these communities. In the Westside Planning area, 29 parcels were removed and no change in zoning / land use policy was proposed; 9 Mixed Use sites were added. In the South Bay, 23 sites were removed as they no longer count towards the RHNA, but still partially changing to Mixed Use.5/31/22 – Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors adopted the Housing Element on 5/17/22, and it received final certification from the State of California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) on 5/27/22.

A specific plan is a tool to systematically implement the General Plan within an identified project area. Specific plans are used to ensure that multiple property owners and developers adhere to a common plan or coordinate multiple phases of a long-term development. Specific plans must further the goals and policies of the General Plan. Specific plans must be consistent with the General Plan. This layer shows specific plans for UNINCORPORATED Los Angeles County.

In 2016, Los Angeles County embarked on an effort to update the 1996 LA River Master Plan to better address existing and new challenges along the river. The updated Plan was approved and adopted by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors in June 2022, which now serves as a guiding document for implementation efforts along the river. This Plan covers a wide range of social and environmental aspects of the LA River, the watershed, and the communities along the river through data-driven methodology. For more information on the updated LA River Master Plan (LARMP), please visit the LA River Master Plan website.Purpose:

To provide the public with information datasets used in the analysis for the updated LA River Master Plan.

Description:

The updated LA River Master Plan is organized by nine goals, each of which represents an equally important active future priority for the LA River. These goals were informed by a rich collection of data describing the physical, social, and cultural attributes of the LA River. Hundreds of datasets were referenced and applied within the Plan to provide critical understanding of community needs and mapping for specific goals. To view and access a wide range of dataset topics such as People Experiencing Homelessness, Water Quality Prioritization, Historical Ecologies of LA County, Arts and Culture Need, Flood Risk Reduction Need, Housing Affordability Need, Parks Need, Displacement Risk, Known Projects, Major Project Zones, and more, please visit the LA River Master Plan Data website.

The Master Plan of Highways was originally developed by the County of Los Angeles Department of Public Works (DPW); it designates roadways in Los Angeles County by their planned capacity. Categories include major highway, secondary highway, limited secondary highway, parkway, and expressway. The entire County is depicted in this layer; but for all intents and purposes the jurisdiction is really for UNINCORPORATED areas of L.A. County and contract cities of the Department of Public Works.LAST UPDATED: 4/9/25 for several zone changes related to the South Bay Area Plan update (removal of a portion of Del Amo Blvd between Normandie Ave and Vermont Ave in the community of West Carson).

THIS LAYER IS OWNED AND MAINTAINED BY LOS ANGELES COUNTY VIA THE LA COUNTY OPEN DATA PORTALState law requires sellers of real property to disclose "any fact materially affecting the value and desirability of the property". Assembly Bill 2776, which went into effect January 1, 2004, requires such disclosure when the property is either within two miles of an airport or if it is within an "airport influence area". The disclosure notice must state that the property may be subject to noise, vibration, odors or other annoyances or inconveniences "associated with proximity to airport operations". This law defines the "airport influence area" as the area where airport-related factors "may significantly affect land uses or necessitate restrictions on those uses as determined by an airport land use commission". The California Public Utilities Code establishes airport land use commissions in every county to provide for the orderly development of air transportation and ensure compatible land uses around airports which are open to public use. According to the State Division of Aeronautics, the "airport influence area" is usually the planning area designated by an airport land use commission for each airport. Please click here to see the Los Angeles County Airport Land Use Commission portion of our website for maps and documents. You can also review the following document from the State of California for further information: California Airport Land Use Planning Handbook.

• Bike Lane - on-street striped travel lane, for the exclusive use of bicycles

• Cycle Track - on-street protected bike lane, separated from other vehicular traffic

• Bike Route - on-street shared travel lane, shared space with other vehicular traffic

State law requires sellers of real property to disclose "any fact materially affecting the value and desirability of the property". Assembly Bill 2776, which went into effect January 1, 2004, requires such disclosure when the property is either within two miles of an airport or if it is within an "airport influence area". The disclosure notice must state that the property may be subject to noise, vibration, odors or other annoyances or inconveniences "associated with proximity to airport operations". This law defines the "airport influence area" as the area where airport-related factors "may significantly affect land uses or necessitate restrictions on those uses as determined by an airport land use commission". The California Public Utilities Code establishes airport land use commissions in every county to provide for the orderly development of air transportation and ensure compatible land uses around airports which are open to public use. According to the State Division of Aeronautics, the "airport influence area" is usually the planning area designated by an airport land use commission for each airport.

Blocks are typically bounded by streets, roads or creeks. In cities, a census block may correspond to a city block, but in rural areas where there are fewer roads, blocks may be limited by other features.
