In so many ways, DTLA is changing the way we view Los Angeles. Sprawl isn't the only way of life. Nor is it all about getting in the car to grab a cup of coffee or to pick up groceries. And it doesn't have to be about commuting 25 miles each way to get to work. According to Walkscore.com, DTLA has a 93% walkscore, 99% transit score, and 69% bike score (and getting better all the time). This is pretty unusual for Los Angeles, but it shows that you CAN walk in L.A.
