City of San Pedro - 100 Largest City in CA

As Los Angeles continues to drive itself into debt, considers raising taxes and fees, and who's city planning department ignores local input, it is time to think about making San Pedro its own city. For a town with so much pride it is amazing how many think we couldn't be our own city. Here are some metrics: Los Angeles is the largest city in California - 3,800,000 The second largest is San Diego at 1,300,000 With a city population of 80,000 San Pedro would be the 95th largest city in CA. San Pedro is larger than Merced, Hemet, Chino, Menifee, Lake Forest, and Napa (77,000). Rolling Hills has 2000 people. Avalon in Catalina has 3100 people. Indian Wells has 5100 people. Solvang has 5200 people. Big Bear Lake has 6100 people. Rolling Hills Estates has 7800 people. We have three neighborhood councils and have a number of people like the Hahn's who have risen from our city. We have the leaders. We have enough people. We just need the will.
