Place of birth

So far we have cited his birth place as Los Angeles, California in this article and in Wikidata. 47.154.81.46 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) has said in an edit summary that North was born in San Pedro, California. When I questioned this, the Times sent me a copy of his birth announcement (in San Pedro Hospital). San Pedro Hospital is in San Pedro, City of Los Angeles, California, so our current claim is surely correct, if imprecise. Perhaps Wikipedia doesn't need to get so precise, but I wanted to note the information here since it seems likely that sources exist if a diligent researcher wanted to find them.
