During the Mexican-American War in 1846, LA and the rest of Ca became U.S. territory, and California was considered as the thirty-first state to the Usa in 1850. The major improvement of Los Angeles took place when town was chosen as the railroad terminus for southern California. In 1876, the Railway linkage with San Francisco was finished and there was a boom in the populace as thousands migrated to town due to its available property, temperate climate, economical transcontinental fares and unspoiled landscapes. The real estate rapidly marched up the cost of land, but also decreased by 1887, crashing the hopes of financers. However, LA continued to flower when its economy was prompted by the discovery of oil in 1892 as well as agricultural developments.

DeMille directed the first feature length picture. In 1923, the world famous "Hollywood" sign was elevated and in 1929, the School Awards were inaugurated. Los Angeles grew its reputation as "Tinseltown" and gave the newcomers a chance to follow their desires by heading west.

In 1950's development in the growth of video was thought to be a menace to the film industry but later turned out to be an economic advantage as the town became the headquarters of the popular development as well as the prospering recording business, establishing its standing as the amusement capital of the world.
From the 1960s, the golden image of Los Angeles began to solve as unchecked urban spread caused environment and social issues. The smog and pollution from the autos and industries were regarded as serious threats to the caliber of life. In July 1965, the urban violence broke out in the black Watts area. As the decade was close to its finish, the assassination of senator and presidential nominee John F. Kennedy (1925 1968) at the Ambassador Hotel allied Los Angeles with more violence.
