Robbie Rogers found a new home and a new life in the Los Angeles neighborhood of West Hollywood | #ThisIsLA

Robbie Rogers always knew that West Hollywood was the place for him.

Since joining the LA Galaxy in 2013, Rogers established roots in the West Los Angeles enclave known for being one of the city’s most progressive communities. West Hollywood has always been known as a bastion of equality throughout the area’s history with over a third of the neighborhood’s population identifying as LGBT.

WeHo’s long record of support of the LGBT community made the area an attractive fit for the defender who made history by becoming the first openly gay athlete in a major American professional sport.
