LA is a hundred markets wearing one name — nobody hires a 'Los Angeles' plumber; they hire a Silver Lake, Culver City or Sherman Oaks one. Neighborhood pages with genuine local substance are the entire game, and the entertainment economy adds a B2B layer where production-adjacent services can charge premium rates if they surface for the right niche searches.
