People have lots of questions about L.A. Which should we answer first?

We asked readers to send us their questions about Los Angeles and California (and found a few additional questions online, too). We picked our favorites — and now you get to choose which question we answer first.

This poll is now closed. Congratulations to Lydia Perez, who asked the winning question: Why do we call the freeways “the 405,” “the 5,” etc. when people in other parts of the country just call freeways by their number?

Do you have a question about L.A. or California? It doesn’t matter how niche or offbeat it might seem — we want to hear it. Send it to us using this link.
