The Elevationmap.net info says: Los Angeles has an average elevation of around 285 feet (87 m), but the city has very different elevations at various points. For example, the highest point in the city of Los Angeles is Mt. Lukens. Located in Los Angeles County in the northeastern part of the city, Mt. Lukens has an elevation of 5,075 feet (1,547 m). Meanwhile, the lowest point in Los Angeles is the Pacific Ocean itself, which is at sea level.

But as I said, most I've seen are 320, like this photo I post because it's interesting, taken during the riots in 1965, and we can tell the location.

Mt. Lukens after our Boxing Day storm last year, the Le Mesnager Barn is the structure in the foreground.
