[@LeeEverett1]

As someone who used to live in LA the last point hits hard. It's VERY hard to make friends there because everyone is all about money and they don't want to waste their time talking or hanging around you if there isn't anything to benefit from it. People will come over and talk to you acting all friendly sure but 99% of the time they are simply sizing you up and determining if you can add anything of value to them. LA is a place where despite its gorgeous scenery and countless things to see and do, it's easy to feel lonely.

[@briansounalath]

Yeah that is true about LA. I think it’s more a symptom from a lot of people working in the industry. People have to admit that Hollywood and the entertainment industry can be very superficial. You can’t have it both ways. But if you don’t work in entertainment and hang out with non-industry people, you actually can easily avoid that.

Okay, but homeless people deserve to live. I can't believe people are more concerned with keeping some weird ass egotistical reputation of LA than the stigma that perpetuates homeless people as terrible. Also most were pushed out of their own home state's due to freezing weather, violence and etc. Homeless people are people regardless if they live here in LA or any other state. Plus, it is not exactly like LA residents don't fucking terrorize homeless residents anyways.

[@dirtydinner2432]

Devilina Gurl California is a state that promotes homelessness with the high cost of living and high taxes which is causing a growing divide between the rich and working class people of the state. I’m not saying homeless people themselves are making LA undesirable, I’m saying the conditions present in the city and state that are making homelessness increasingly prevalent are the problem

[@Shittybaybe]

Not really. Capitalism is why homelessness is a problem not a state. Homeless people don't wish to be homeless nor does anyone. The only reason why there is a huge homeless population here is due to the "acceptance" of homelessness without fixing the actual issue. That rent is too high and that's not due to homelessness. It's due to gentrification and more richer people moving into the area and trying to force poor families out of the area to make the state richer and wealthier but does not actually get rid of poor families. It just makes them suffer.

Nothing quite like going to a Dodger game, seeing the city, going to Universal, walking around the Americana in Glendale, quick drive to the beach (at least to Orange County from the valley). Sure parking and rent and food are expensive (as is everything--but there are ways to get around it like taking the bus/train, living in the suburbs, cooking your own meals, etc.), homeless population is on the rise, smog and traffic are mutually inclusive. But that is typically the case in all major cities. When you can look past that, and see that the people here are just trying to survive same as you, you can really see the beauty in it (maybe not so much in the angry drivers though, lol).

Unless you live in a dictatorship, it's your own fault. Your government will confiscate as much of your wealth as you allow it to. Stop voting for liberal politicians that promise free everything.

[@flopunkt3665]

Yes, mobility is a bit more expensive in Europe, but all the rest is way cheaper. Food, healthcare and off course education! And European countries invest the tax money into road maintenance. So in total I think most of Europe gets a way better deal.

[@wehatedisneystars]

Flo Punkt fake news. Healthcare and education aren’t free in Europe, they’re paid through very high taxes.

[@flopunkt3665]

@@wehatedisneystars i wrote that those things were way cheaper in Europe, not free!

[@Dongonzales123]

@@LG123ABC I don't mind paying more taxes if it means I don't get bankrupted by breaking my leg. By voting for economically liberal politicians you get your wealth taken away by private companies instead of the government, an entity that has many more checks and balances not to spend it all on a CEO's salary.

Shows like “The Hills” showcase Los Angeles living for RICH kids, not your average person that lives in or moves to LA. They can party almost every night of the week, because they come from families with money and connections. Money makes life real easy.

[@grandoldsoul4691]

true. la is just liek any other city. downtown la and hollywood blvd have tweakers on the corners, smells like piss, has many attractionns. just liek downtown sf. or new york. but its the same as everywhere else. ppl in a rush, on their phone. ect. movies makeit seem like some magical city. i do like to visit la. but it's not like once you enter la your all of a sudden going to be famous

[@notsure6187]

you can live like that in Houston on a normal salary or a slightly above average salary.

Shoutout from KTown ✌🏽. Born n raised in LA

[@koumbacummings8076]

It’s just crazy how people who aren’t from or born in LA and only hang out in the most gentrified areas of Los Angeles like to share their experience and not that it’s not valid cause everyone’s experience should be taken into consideration but LA isn’t really like that

[@neonronin69]

Yeah La county and socal in general is just as rich in culture as NYC in a lot of ways these people literally just all move to West Hollywood and tell the world how la sucks

[@dudoklasovity2093]

apart from few places , the city sucks as a whole. Orange county is a different story but that’s not LA technically

[@samarahpuckett5611]

Okay here's what I have to say. I'm not saying that any of her points are incorrect, but a lot of the issues in Los Angeles are the same as issues worldwide. There are gangs everywhere, homeless people everywhere, the elite and the poor everywhere, natural disasters everywhere, etc. You cannot escape the negatives that life as to offer. So, one may say don't move to LA because of its issues, but each city has its own. Not everyone wants to move to LA to get rich and famous. Speaking for myself, I am an artist who wants to move to Los Angeles because it is a highly artist-populated city. I plan to become successful in the next couple of years, however whether or not that will happen will be solely based off of the hard work and effort that I put in. I want to be surrounded by people who are interested in the world of creativity and media. Living in the small city I do, it's hard to find people who have similar interests. My point is, if you want to move to LA, do it. If you don't, then don't. It is expensive yes, but there are ways around it. Trust me. All I do for work is brew coffee and toast bagels, but I've planned a living situation which will pay the bills with enough money to take care of myself and have extra left over. People often forget that there's living options other than apartments and houses. You can rent rooms for pretty cheap and work two jobs, if that's what you have to do. If you want something you will go after it and make it work. Don't get me wrong, it's not easy, but what's a good life without hard work?

[@swas680]

totally agreed!

[@TheMufinv]

gangs, poor people, natural disasters *laughs in northern europe*

[@desireschlogel3901]

💯

[@kitapsever5995]

You explained clearly

[@legendaryTMNICO]

I agree. Not everyone who moves to CA are only interested in moving to LA. Some people choose to move to San Diego and some people choose to move up north to the Silicon Valley to pursue a certain career. There are affordable places to live outside of LA like Palmdale, Lancaster, Mohave, Apple Valley and Bakersfield.

[@Av-lm6zh]

I am planing on moving to USA from Norway for a year in high school, but I can’t decide between LA or New York. This helped a lot!

thanks for mentioning that I still have to do chores in LA, bc I thought they'd just disappear there

[@diabot9241]

LMAO

She just meant ur not gonna be lying by the pool all day like the Kardashian’s no need to be rude

@@tracy_cakkes you can lay by the pool all day here if you want. I do at times. Kardashians have chores too but its not televised.

My plan: • Get a job in UK while still at school (and a sugar daddy at the legal age) • Graduate school with whatever money I have. • Move with my friend to LA get a tiny apartment and share rent. • Attempt to get a job as a stripper. • See where life takes me.

Even small apartments are getting pretty expensive.

I’m from LA. I live in Florida now. I resonate with this video so much I’m contemplating making a reaction video to it, just because of how accurate it is haha. Well done 👍🏻

[@joshuathinkingoutloud]

I made the vid. It’s on my channel 😉

[@endofyeww20]

J Bosse Florida is only cheaper tbh. I would never move there myself

[@angusorvid8840]

Excellent video. As one who grew up in Los Angeles I can attest, everything you say is true. It is simply impossible to find the center of this city, and you can't find that magical place to live that will put you in reach of everything you need to do. It's simply impossible. Unless you can work from home and order everything to your doorstep, including groceries, you're gonna be on that road dealing with traffic. No fun. I had a job once where I had to leave home two hours early just to be there on time. It was only twelve miles away. And this was a minwage job...years ago! Traffic has only gotten worse, so I'm glad I can afford to work from home. But I still have to brave the traffic. Yes, we have a lot of shallow phonies here, but I live in what I call Real L.A. What I mean by that, is I deal mostly with regular people with a good head on their shoulders, not fame seekers. I have a lot of Mexican American friends and they live very normal, down to earth lives and don't pay attention to all the silliness.

[@lindsey5365]

LA vs NY it will always be that battle....I always wanted to live in NY and not LA when I was in my early 20s. Now I can see how they are somewhat similar. I choose to stay in my hometown now I see it is cheaper.
