Streets in Palms, California, U.S.A
Palms is the oldest community on Los Angeles’s West Side.The first streets were laid out in 1886.

Below is a list of the streets included within the Palms-Westside Village Neighborhood Watch. (In parentheses are earlier names of the streets and the dates, when known.)

Some of the streets are outside the boundaries of the Palms Neighborhood Council but within those of the Neighborhood Watch.
Because the street pattern of West Los Angeles was determined by the slope of the Pacific Coast, most of Palms’ ‘north-south’ streets tilt to the west on the southern end, and our ‘east-west’ streets lift gradually northward as you travel east. Some of the streets below meander all over the place.
