Beverly Hills is a city in the western part of Los Angeles County, California.
Beverly Hills and the neighboring city of West Hollywood are together entirely surrounded
by the city of Los Angeles.
The area's "Platinum Triangle" of wealthy neighborhoods is formed by Beverly Hills
and the Los Angeles neighborhoods of Bel-Air and Holmby Hills.
Beverly Hills is bordered on the north by Bel-Air and the Santa Monica Mountains, on the east
by West Hollywood, the Carthay neighborhood of Los Angeles, and the Fairfax District of Los Angeles,
on the south by the Los Angeles neighborhood of Beverlywood, and on the west by Holmby Hills
as well as Westwood Village and Century City, which are also Los Angeles districts.
Beverly Hills is not as uniformly wealthy as Hollywood portrays it.
Although some of the largest homes in Los Angeles County lie within its city limits, these homes
make up just 10% of the city. The remaining homes include small duplex rental units and detached
homes with less than 3,000 square feet (278.7 m²).
There are areas within Los Angeles County that are more uniformly wealthy and have a
higher household median income than Beverly Hills.
The city's average household income, just over $71,000, is $18,000 higher than the county average.
