Los Angeles Active Business Listing (City of Los Angeles)

Rows from the City of Los Angeles Office of Finance listing of active registered businesses: each location with account number, business and trade name, street and mailing address, ZIP, NAICS code and description, council district, start date and coordinates. Returns up to 50 rows per call; narrow them with a SoQL where clause, for example on zip_code, naics or council_district, and sort with order. Every value comes back as a string except the location object. City of Los Angeles data as served by Eden Engine, not an official City product.
