You might want to check this site, which is somewhat accurate:

I know that a new RN makes about $20 an hour, maybe $25, in the San Bernardino/Riverside area, but I can't speak to LVNs or the LA area.

I'm an LVN and I work at a hospital in Palmdale. Palmdale is part of L.A. coutny and it's about 45 minutes north of Los Angeles. The new-grad pay out here is: LVN $14-16/hr, RN $23-25/hr. If you work in Los Angeles you will get paid a little more.
