Editor notes

Provisional viability, set comparable to the adjacent LA: West Side corridor (75), pending an operability recompute (2026-07-23). Coco operates about 300 robots across Los Angeles including Mid-City, Hollywood and Koreatown (via DoorDash and Uber Eats), enclosing the Larchmont and Hancock Park pocket. Coverage traces to Coco's verified published footprint (already backed by reviewed deployment records coco-bot-hollywood and coco-bot-silver-lake), not to a single sighting. Corridor added 2026-07-23 on that evidence plus a ground observation.
