Located in the Mid-Wilshire district of Los Angeles, Koreatown is rich with historic brownstones, high-end Asian boutiques, food markets, and spas. In the 1960s, when restrictions were eased on immigration between East Asia and the U.S., Korean immigrants and investors came to California in droves.
