los angeles

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'in california' is the definition.
('Los Angeles' is part of 'california')

'long leases arranged' is the wordplay.
'arranged' indicates anagramming the letters.
'long'+'leases'='longleases'
'longleases' anagrammed gives 'LOS ANGELES'.

'in a city' is the link.
This may not be right. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for los angeles that I've seen before include "American city" , "Big city" , "LA, California" , "Hollywood city" , "Californian city" .)
