Not knowing you're exact area or price point, I would recommend looking at multi units in San Pedro (the last affordable beach left in the west side), Long Beach (heavy rental market), Fullerton (great schools and universities), Monrovia (the next Pasadena), Korea Town (the new echo park), mid-Wilshire (excellent rental market), South Adams (the current hot spot for flips), Cypress (near Oxford Academy), Duarte (the next Monrovia, stay above foothill).

There are only two areas I would recommend for you to even consider investing in and that is San Pedro on Ambergris Caye and Placencia. 

Would anyone like to meet for coffee and a chat in San Pedro on Sunday morning?

Two off the top of my head are Long Beach Multiservice Center and Harbor Interfaith in San pedro.  

 check with the HCIDLA; San Pedro has rent control with specific rules to evict people 

Pedro is correct.

I have multifamily properties in Philly and Jenkintown in PA + São Paulo in Brazil.

@Pedro Del OrbeAre you looking to place section 8 tenants in Belleville? 

Now that I have a few out of state rentals I’m considering buying a house hack in San Pedro.

I would also consider parts of San Pedro as well as other portions of Long Beach depending on your investment goals and if you are looking to build in some sweat equity or bank on some future appreciation for the area based on local initiatives.
