There are certain locations you probably don't want to park in the Los Angeles area if you don't want a parking citation.
According to a new study from Crosstown, a non-profit news organization covering the neighborhoods of Los Angeles through data, Hollywood, Downtown and Westlake are the three top neighborhoods where citations are issued.
"But the numbers were down 7%, 24% and 19%, respectively, compared with the same period last year," the story by authors Ethan Ward and Coco Huang on Crosstown said.
For example, the top five reasons to receive a ticket in LA was for street cleaning (327,462), expired meter (152,525), red zone (95,196), preferential parking (74,427), and display of tabs (63,363).
