How to Use This Hollywood, California Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Hollywood, California. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of California or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Hollywood.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Hollywood, California

Hollywood is a locality in Los Angeles County, California, United States. With a population of 200,000, Hollywood is a major urban centre in California. The population density is 9600.0 people per km². Hollywood is located at 34.0983°N, 118.3267°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP code: 90028.

Hollywood claims a distinctive space upon the dry, sun-bleached plains where the earth holds a quiet, dusty heat throughout the long afternoons. It lies 2.1 miles east-northeast of West Hollywood, CA (from West Hollywood, CA: bearing 74°T), and is situated 5.7 miles northwest of Los Angeles. The terrain here is defined by an inland dryness, characterized by parched slopes and the subtle, shifting shadows that stretch across the land as the sun dips toward the horizon. Within this arid landscape, Hollywood maintains a proximity to the calm waters of the Hollywood Reservoir, a singular blue presence just a mile away, while the Los Angeles River cuts its persistent path three miles distant through the basin. Selma Park offers a small, immediate patch of green relief amidst the urban density, providing a place to pause while the distant, hazy outlines of the Santa Monica Mountains suggest a rugged boundary far beyond the local sprawl.

Development of Hollywood began with the quiet ambition of early settlers who looked upon these hills and saw potential for a transformation that would eventually echo across the globe. What started as an agricultural venture, with orchards and fields stretching across the landscape, gradually shifted as the promise of a burgeoning industry began to draw dreamers and architects of imagination to the site. Hollywood grew not by the slow accretion of centuries, but by a sudden, sharp focus of human intent that redirected the purpose of the land. Over the decades, the original, simpler character of the landscape was paved over to make room for the infrastructure of a new, synthetic reality, leaving behind only the ghosts of the old groves in the names of streets and the persistent, golden light that still defines the afternoon.

Economic life in Hollywood remains tethered to the relentless machinery of entertainment and the vast, interlocking industries that support the creation of visual narratives. While the area lacks the heavy manufacturing centers of older industrial hubs, it thrives on a dense network of creative offices, post-production houses, and the commerce that services a transient, global workforce. Educational institutions such as the Los Angeles City College provide a foundation for those seeking to enter these competitive fields, anchoring the local economy with a steady stream of students and faculty. The infrastructure of Hollywood is a complex web of boulevards and transit lines, functioning like a circulatory system that keeps the pace of production moving with an intensity that often defies the stillness of the surrounding, sun-drenched environment.

Cultural life in Hollywood is defined by the weight of its own iconography, where the remnants of a century of performance linger in the architecture and the daily rhythm of the streets. Landmark structures like the TCL Chinese Theatre and the faded grandeur of the Walk of Fame serve as physical markers of a celebrity culture that has become synonymous with the name of the place itself. Residents and visitors alike navigate the terrain of Brush Canyon or traverse the Bridle Trail, finding a rare, quiet perspective on the world below. While professional sports teams represent the broader region, the true pulse of Hollywood is found in the major annual festivals and the constant, quiet arrival of individuals like Charlie Chaplin or Judy Garland, whose legacies remain etched into the local consciousness despite the ever-changing nature of the industry they helped to build.

About This Hollywood Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Hollywood, California. Coordinates: 34.098342, -118.326743. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Hollywood includes the ZIP code (90028), telephone area code (213, 323), county seat of Los Angeles County (Los Angeles), and school district assignment.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
