Why hire a Magento developer in LA vs NYC / Bay Area?

LA is the USA's #2 e-commerce capital (after NYC) and the #1 cluster for DTC beauty/wellness, athleisure, influencer-DTC, entertainment-merch, and apparel manufacturing. Specific advantages over NYC and Bay Area: (1) Beauty/wellness DTC, Goop, Drunk Elephant, Ouai, ColourPop, NYX (Glendale HQ), Anastasia Beverly Hills, Beautyblender all run from LA, not NYC; (2) Athleisure DTC, Vuori, Beyond Yoga, Carbon38, Bandier all LA-based; (3) Influencer-DTC, Kylie Cosmetics, KKW Beauty, Skims (Calabasas HQ), Goop all in LA; (4) Apparel manufacturing, DTLA Fashion District has 1,800+ wholesalers, LARGEST US cluster (bigger than NYC Garment District); (5) Entertainment-merch, Disney+ shop, Netflix shop, WB Studio Store, Marvel merch all Burbank/LA. NYC is stronger for finance/B2B/publishing-tech. Bay Area is stronger for SaaS/B2B/enterprise software. For DTC-consumer-Magento, LA is the right city. We work LA-first and ship to other US regions.
