@metrolosangeles Glad you don't use the federal census' outdated name "Florence-Graham." Though, I do recommend you update your maps to include the full name for the unincorporated community of Florence-Firestone. We do have three Blue Line stations and three TODs 😉 :::: #FlorenceFirestone #LosAngelesCounty #SouthCentral #LosAngeles #90001 #90002 (at Florence- Firestone Community Service Center)
