SAN PEDRO - is a port district of the city of Los Angeles, California, United States. It was annexed in 1909 and is a major seaport of the area. The district has grown from being dominated by the fishing industry to become primarily a working class community within the city of Los Angeles. Its name is locally pronounced /sænˈpiːdroʊ/ by its residents, even those of Hispanic origin, rather than by its Spanish pronunciation of [samˈpeðɾo].
