Greater Los Angeles Area

Sponsorship the way you would do it

The Greater Los Angeles Area is the populated area around Los Angeles, California. It has been used in several ways:

Some use the term as a synonym for Los Angeles County.
It might be used to refer to the three county Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County, California Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Area.
Others use it to mean the same thing as the five-county region of the Southland, although Southland is seldom used outside of local news outlets.

One problem with the latter two definitions is that only a small portion of the western end of Riverside and San Bernardino counties contains populated areas that could be considered Los Angeles suburbs.
