Consistent with many major-league sports stadiums built in the 1960s, it is located in a suburban area, though one that is host to major tourist attractions. The field dimensions (333 feet instead of 347 or 350, for example) were derived from a scientific study conducted by the Angels.

An American football field is 160 ft (53 yd; 49 m) wide and 360 ft (120 yd; 110 m) long, including two 10 yd (9.1 m) long end zones. A Canadian football field is 65 yd (59 m) wide and 150 yd (140 m) long, including two 20 yd (18 m) long end zones. Media in the UK also use the football pitch as a unit of length, although the area of the association football pitch is not fixed, but may vary within limits of 90â120 m (98â131 yd) in length and 45â90 m (49â98 yd) in width.
