Do we actually have a source that identifies the familiar Beverly Hills sign as it's official [[coat of arms]]? That seems odd. The image is sourced to the BH official website, but I could find nothing indicating it has the status of a coat of arms.

"The largest ethnic community are Persians, who make up over 26% of the population of Beverly Hills"? I presume 26% of the minorities? I can't check it, because note 54 doesn't work anymore. [[User:Vinvlugt|Vinvlugt]] ([[User talk:Vinvlugt|talk]]) 08:15, 15 April 2019 (UTC) |

I moved an image of a photo model on duty to a section of the article that mentions entertainment agencies as relevant to the economy of the city. That was [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Beverly_Hills,_California&oldid=prev&diff=969200643&markasread=195795992&markasreadwiki=enwiki reversed here] with an edit summary that does not make any sense to me. So now that photo is back where it royally screws up the layout of he article, at least on standard screens like mine. Better? --[[User:SergeWoodzing|SergeWoodzing]] ([[User talk:SergeWoodzing|talk]]) 09:36, 24 July 2020 (UTC) |

:{{fixed}} after no input here. I would not mind if that image was removed, but seeing it under "Climate" looks ridiculous.

This entire story is so inaccurate i dont where to start. Beverly hills began when burton green couldnt buy a house in Hancock Park (because he was Jewish). It was called Beverly Hills because his wife’s name was Beverly. Hence, beverly blvd. beverly drive. Burton avenue. There were no race restrictions. Only that each home be 1 acre in size north of wilshire boulevard. The south was reserved for the working class. Their child “dolly green” was an equestrian. Yes. He did build the Beverly Hills hotel. It burned to the ground and was rebuilt. This is why wikipedia doesnt work when it comes to facts.
