Could be Agaricus campestris sensu auct. amer., but be careful of Agaricus californicus, which is toxic and looks very similar and is super common in southern california.

Those both look like an Agaricus sp.  I'd wait for a TI to narrow it down to which species though.

Yes, the habitats overlap. 

A. californicus smells somewhat bad when you scratch the cap, something like ink.  But not everyone can smell that odor.

A. californicus likes a broader range of habitats and has a more robust annulus also.

Compare http://www.mykoweb.com/CAF/species/Agaricus_californicus.html

And http://www.mykoweb.com/CAF/species/Agaricus_campestris.html
