Homes only of people who have died or that are museums – current addresses of living people are not shown, out of respect for their privacy.
Good to know
- Cemeteries are places of mourning: keep quiet, stay on the paths, no selfies at strangers’ graves.
- Many historic homes can only be visited on a guided tour – check times beforehand, often closed on Mondays.
- Large cemeteries (Forest Lawn, Hollywood Forever) have maps at the entrance or online.
