Playa Vista, a neighborhood in Los Angeles, California, has transitioned from a moderately diverse community to a White Majority area with Moderate Diversity between 2013 and 2022. The white population increased from 45% in 2013 to 58% in 2022. Concurrently, the Asian population decreased from 26% to 17%, while the Hispanic population remained stable at 12-14%. The community experienced an increase in residents identifying as two or more races, rising from 5% in 2013 to 8% in 2022.

The demographic shifts in Playa Vista occurred alongside significant economic growth. The median income increased from $139,488 in 2013 to $177,627 in 2022, representing a 27% increase. This economic growth coincides with the increasing white majority and may be attributed to the influx of high-paying tech jobs in the area. The population more than doubled during this period, from 4,966 in 2013 to 9,102 in 2022, suggesting that Playa Vista has become an increasingly attractive location for residents.

The demographic and economic trends in Playa Vista reflect broader patterns seen in gentrifying urban areas, particularly those associated with tech industry growth. The increasing white majority and rising median income are similar to trends observed in other tech hubs. However, Playa Vista's changes are more pronounced than Los Angeles as a whole. While Los Angeles has maintained its status as a Majority-Minority city with a large Hispanic population, Playa Vista has moved towards a White Majority.
