Great Question. Not everyone asks but so many are confuse or don't know.Some people think they live in the city of Compton,but actually they don't. Here are some quick ways you may know if you live in the city of Compton or if you are in the city of Compton. First, you should see the streets, some big streets have the street of the name and on the bottom it has City of Compton. For example, "Compton Blvd" City of Compton. Second, if you passed by a street and you see outside on the streets trash containers and you see a logo and it has "City of Compton," one you are inside the city limits of Compton, or two, someone stole that trash can and they are using it as a trash container. Third, if you own a house, you should probably pay the water to the city of Compton Water department. But, if you really want to know here is the official map of the city of Compton(city limits). If you don't live inside the city limits of the city of Compton, you should educated neighbors too. I bet your neighbors or people that you know are also confused or don't know if they actually live inside the city limits of the city of Compton or know if were there relatives or a store is inside the city of Compton city limits.
You would probably going to get responses that Compton is from the 105(North) to 91(South) and from 710(East) to Avalon(West). But they are wrong.
But here goes the link to the official city map and the city council map:

Hopefully, I have help you. Hopefully you live inside of the city of Compton, if so get involve(vote)
Or if you don't live in the city limits of Compton, you probably live in Willowbrook or any other incorporated area of Los Angeles County. Hopefully, you have learned something new today.
