Located in the South Bay and Harbor region of Los Angeles, Wilmington combines industrial heritage with strong community connections. The neighborhood's history dates back to 1784 when it was part of a Spanish land grant. Founded by Phineas Banning and incorporated into Los Angeles in 1909, Wilmington now forms a vital part of one of the world's busiest port complexes alongside San Pedro.
The neighborhood offers housing options at lower price points than many Los Angeles areas, with one-bedroom apartments averaging $1,421 monthly. Residents have access to several recreational spaces including the Banning Recreation Center, Wilmington Recreation Center, and the Wilmington Waterfront Park, which opened in 2011. History enthusiasts can explore the Drum Barracks Civil War Museum and the Banning Museum. A notable local landmark is the Phillips 66 storage tank, transformed each October into what's considered the world's largest jack-o'-lantern—a Halloween tradition since 1952.
