I honestly dislike LA. I hate it's weather (I'm a winter person), and it seems to be full of two-faced people.

[quote=darkorbit6]I think LA looks like the west coast version of NYC, with nicer weather and even more congested traffic near the center of the city.[/quote]

I live like 10min away from Los Angeles and I've been to New York. When I went to Manhattan, Brooklyn, and a few nearby areas, the traffic was more congested than LA traffic. The drivers there are more rude and less law abiding too. The roads...terrible. The only traffic that's worse that I could think of is San Francisco...or somewhere nearby at least traffic. I don't know where exactly I was but I spent 2 hours worth of idle fuel just to get through 1 mile.

EDIT: NYC and LA are very similar. LA just has nicer weather and less congested...in general but I'll admit NY has better street food + night activities that isn't partying/clubbing.

People don't believe me when I say I'm from LA (I live in England). Some people go pretty crazy over it for some reason, but I guess it's because of how far it is.

I'd might want to live there someday c:
The weather is always nice and perfect and the city is really nice too owo
It might be better to live there than live in Vegas, which is where I am right now.

It's not a horrible place, I mean maybe because I live here but doesn't every city have a bad place or horrible things?

I've been there once so it's not really "imagining". Horrible traffic, awful transit system, confusing cities/highways system, a lot of people, but the palm trees are pretty.
