Los Angeles is known for its never-ending sprawl, and its traffic jams.

Voters in 2024 overwhelmingly supported a ballot measure to require the city to build more bike lanes and more walkable, livable spaces in Los Angeles .

Only about 7% of Angelenos take transit to work, according to Neighborhood Data for Social Change .

Mayor Bass said she's hopeful President-elect Trump will be supportive despite his frequent tensions with other California political leaders.
