Wilshire (pronounced wilsher by residents) is a region of the City of Los Angeles, California. The Wilshire area is north of the I-10, east of Beverly Hills, west of Downtown LA and south of Hollywood. Wilshire contains, or abuts the districts of Mid-City West and Mid-Wilshire. It refers to those areas that are centered around Wilshire Boulevard roughly between Hoover St. and La Cienega Blvd, but also any adjacent to Wilshire Blvd, between Downtown Los Angeles and Beverly Hills. It is a collection of wealthy, middle, and working class neighborhoods that cluster around Wilshire Boulevard. Unlike other parts of Los Angeles, the wealthier neighborhoods of Wilshire, such as Larchmont and Hancock Park, are set not in the hills but rather on leveled land north of Wilshire Boulevard and east of Beverly Hills. On the lower end, Koreatown is an example of a somewhat struggling neighborhood undergoing a revival. For a map see http://www.allncs.org/west_wilshiremap.htm Some also include Echo Park & Westlake (listed below) as a part of a Greater Wilshire.
