The real place
East Los Angeles is an unincorporated, largely Mexican-American community east of downtown, known for Whittier Boulevard and its murals. The game takes its name and character, with some influence from Florence-Graham.
Visiting
Whittier Boulevard and the murals around it are the best introduction. The Metro E Line stops at East LA Civic Center.
