If the unincorporated community of East Los Angeles were actually an incorporated city, with a 2022 estimated population of 117,222, it would rank as Los Angeles County's tenth most populous city.
The city with the highest percent population growth in L.A. County, from 2020 to 2022, was Vernon. It has one of the smallest populations of the county's cities, but grew an estimated 48% over two years. As for the largest percent population loss among L.A. County's cities, that would be the two affluent cities of Bradbury and Rolling Hills. Both cities also have relatively small populations, however, both shrank about 16% from 2020 through 2022.
