Montebello Hoodies
Description: I explored a bit of Montebello's history for "California Fool's Gold" in 2007. In fact, it's one of the rare cases where I drew the map afterward -- after I began getting a bit of positive public and media attention. https://ericbrightwell.com/2007/11/03/montebello-montesmello-if-youre-nasty/
Description: Southeast Los Angeles County -- or just "Southeast Los Angeles" -- refers to a cluster of gateway cities and unincorporated suburbs located between South Los Angeles's Eastside, the San Gabriel Valley, and North Orange County. I wrote a primer of the region, for my series "California Fool's Gold," in 2009 and drew an earlier version of the map at that time. This one was completed a short time after. https://ericbrightwell.com/2009/04/28/california-fools-gold-a-southeast-los-angeles-primer/
