Los Angeles… I’ve heard of it referred to as the drain of America (where all the crap swirls), and I couldn’t think of a better description!
I lived there two years, and sacrificed quite a bit to get the hell out:
The entire infrastructure needs to be torn down and rebuilt. Everything is EXTREMELY overpriced for less (much less).
You never know when the next earthquake is passing through, and for being so close to the beach it’s useless. You have to pay an outrageous amount to park at the beach after spending an hour looking for parking, only to sit on the overcrowded sand and not go in the water because its 60 degrees.
The government takes more money than almost anywhere else and who knows WHERE it’s going, b/c it’s not to schools, roads, honest public servants, or anywhere else I looked.
It’s HORRIBLE.
And this isn’t even the beginning of my list… I would love to live in other parts of Cali though.
Oh yea, and it’s the gang capitol of the world, but the top ranking law enforcement officers don’t allow citizens their 2nd amendment right to carry. And this isn’t the only right LA violates on a daily basis.
