El Segundo is a jobs hub meaning more people work here than live here. For every resident, there are more than two and a half employees working here. One of the highest ratios in the region. This makes the City a hub for business, innovation, and daily visitors. Jobs -to -Resident Ratio ElSegundo 2.6 JOBS PER RESIDENT Los Angeles County 0.4 JOBS PER • RESIDENT Having more workers than it has residents means most employees commute in. This creates opportunities to think about how land use decisions can ease commutes, reduce traffic impacts, and support a balance between where people work and where they live. 01 ILTJLAM1•■■=&Ak**14I11O«•121611dr• INTRODUCTION WHAT'S AGENERAL PLAN?
