SoCal might be the best place to live for a young person. (srs)

[DevonHardy]

The Valley is OK, but wouldn't live there. not much going on up there for someone in their 20's (srs). Venice, Santa Monica, the Del Rays, and further down towards the Beach areas is where its at. All inexpensive areas if you shop around

Santa Monica as my first choice, but dat 2k and up apartment prices

Venice looks like a chill beach scene, idk if it's somewhere I'd want to live though.

I wouldn't consider close proximity to Mexico to be a pro

that would definitely be a con in my book

2 idiot in this thread. california was more native americans than mexico considering most of pre-american california was empy.

and not only is cali filled with mexicans, there are tons of asians and brown people who seem to have a hard on for looking down on white people. like they're taking out their built up rage for what previous generations did to them

You're right, there weren't that many Mexicans but there were also few whites,asians,etc. It was like the wild wild west but then again we are the ones who introduced the "vaqueros" which are now known as cowboys among other things plus the native americans like us more than they like you. I personally don't hate white people but it seems like the only ones looking to start a racial debate are the whites.

I'm from Mexico you dumb fuk

[matador04]

Srs, I hear people make 25k there and make it fine.



Yeah, checked all that. I'm a web dev/designer so if I find a job I'd be good.

San Diego brah checking in and both of the statements above are chit. I didn't start living the good life here until my wife and I crossed the 200k mark.

Sure you can snowboard and surf and eat lobster burritos in Baja on the same day, but it costs $$$... good luck finding a web developer/designer gig here :lulz: we've got more of those than we do lawyers.

I know you are from Mexico but how exactly is that a bad thing ?

[matador04]

I'm considering transferring to a University in Cali to finish degree/maybe learn more spanish.

inb4 manlets not welcome.

get rosetta stone and save yourself thousands... or travel to Mexico instead.

[DevonHardy]

Super old pic, took after all nighter, skinny as fuk then, and yeah the hair was a bad call.

FSI Spanish is MUCH better and free. After doing that you'll be able to hold a convo with anyone in Spanish.

[Caesar1991]

OP is so phucking right. I'm currently trying to transfer to my firm's LA office. NYC is just too phucking cold/expensive.

I love when people act like "native americans" and the natives from mexico are 2 totally different things. lets be honest, if the line that divides mexico from the US had been established further south, then the natives living in what is now northern mexico would be considered native americans. if the line had been draw further north, then those currently considered native american would be considered native mexicans.

it is. every single time.

also factor in that whites don't really give a chit about diversity so no wonder the conservative demographic here prefers Midwest/southern states.

I used this for LA neighborhoods: http://maps.latimes.com/neighborhoods/ It has crime reports, income level, demos and chit like that.

This for other parts of California: http://www.city-data.com/forum/california/. Really good resource here.

Damn, what work do you do?

[liore22]

gonna have to agree with OP

i've been through over 50% of the country. SoCal is the best if you're a.) Minority b.) don't like the cold c.) like latinas/asians

d.) Jewish e.) have a career in tech/med/ or want to start up your own company. f.) want them laidback people
Took me a while to realize this. However, if I got a job offer abroad in London or Hong Kong i'd be gone in a heartbeat.

[GoingPlaces]
