Parking in and near Los Angeles, CA

As you might expect from a city where roughly 72% of the population commutes by car, in Los Angeles, parking can be a bit of a headache. Still, with limited public transportation options between the Los Angeles airport and downtown, many visitors to the city will find driving to be their most convenient transportation option. A number of off-site rental car companies offer shuttles to and from LAX, though travelers staying at area hotels may also want to check to see if a free hotel shuttle is offered to them as well. Meanwhile, LA residents flying out of LAX airport will find that parking at LAX is relatively easy since there are dozens of parking lots at or near the airport, many of which also offer free shuttle buses to the terminals.
