Ask us your burning questions about L.A. and California

The L.A. Times is interested in asking questions, finding answers and learning more about the place we live. That's a big part of what we do. We also know that there are so many questions we haven't had a chance to ask or even think of.

That's why we are reaching out to our community of readers to hear what questions you have. We'll be answering questions like: How did “Silicon Beach” become a thing? How did the wind farms outside Palm Springs come to be?
