Where was Boyz n the Hood filmed?

1991 film by John Singleton

Boyz n the Hood (1991) was shot in California — and that is the whole of what Wikidata records. No street, no building, no studio: the statement names a country or a state and stops there.

Places whose own article says it was shot there

1 place whose own Wikipedia article names this film as something shot there, where Wikidata records nothing and this film’s own article does not say so either. The weakest evidence on this atlas: no pin on the map, and nothing in the downloads. Each sentence is quoted whole and linked to the article it came from, so it can be judged rather than taken on trust.

Why there is no pin

A dot in the middle of California would claim something nobody wrote, so this atlas leaves the statement as a sentence. The detail exists in the world — someone stood somewhere with a camera — it has simply never been written down as data. If you know where, it can be added to Wikidata, and this page fills in on the next rebuild.
