Entertainment and media get the headlines, but the real volume sits in trucking, construction, restaurants, and professional services. The port complex at Long Beach and LA handles roughly 40% of all U.S. container imports, fueling a massive logistics and freight ecosystem. Access to capital varies wildly by neighborhood, with South LA and the Eastside historically underserved by traditional banks.
