ugh they live within the city limits of Beverly
Hills and pay Beverly Hills taxes and live in Beverly Hill style
mansions they are degraded with a Los Angeles zip code address.   While
some people who live in the "slums" of Los Angeles City have a Beverly
Hills postal address.

The Los Angeles Times told of another victim of the disagreement
between the post office boundaries of Beverly Hills and the actual
boundaries of Beverly Hills.  This poor fellow lived within the city
limits of Beverly Hills but when he went to the Beverly Hills public
library he was denied a card because his drivers license with his
postal address showed the city he lived in as Los Angeles.  He then
went to the Los Angeles public libary to apply for a card.  The
librarian looked up his address on a chart and sent him to Beverly
Hills.  What eventually happened was he went to a Los Angeles County
(not city) public library and got a county library card.  Drove to
Burbank which has reciprocal priviledges and got a Burbank card and
then went to the Beverly Hills library since because of a second set
of reciprocal priviledges a Burbank card is good at the Beverly
Hills library.
