As a Polish individual who resided in the USA for over 35 years, I experienced a gradual decline in quality of life each year since my arrival. Four years ago, the tipping point was reached, prompting my family's return to Poland. We now reside happily in Warsaw, enjoying its safety and cleanliness. Our daughter, born in California, Orange County refuses to entertain the thought of returning. This decision ranks among the best in my life. It's not solely a California issue; the entire country is crumbling while its elites prioritize excessive spending on endless wars and undocumented immigrants.

As a Czech born, who has now lived in five countries, including 33 years now in the USA, I almost did as you have. But I know better the hisory of Europe and had a strange feeling Europe is soon to suffer a similar fate. So it would be out of the Frying pan, into another frying pan. My mom said it well in the early 2000's when she said to my father "you know better than to ever want to move back. There are cycles of history that always repeat in Europe. It's great now - but we need to remember that Europe will always be in a war eventually. She seems to have been right. Europe is a crazy place now, kind of like Democratic cities were fifteen years ago. Europeans just can't help themselves. They all hate their neighbors at some level. I grew up with Poles in Canada. The Poles were pretty brutal in their own hates and prejudices. And the Czechs are wimps. Europe - no thanks. Not for a long while with what the EU is up to. But good luck.

I was homeless. I watched people for several years. IMO, the littering/garbage that people leave is passive/aggressive behavior- a FU to society. People are animals. I prefer to avoid them.

Quote on the shown Barclay Hotel (Wiki): "At the time of its opening, the hotel was one of the most luxurious in Los Angeles and was the first in the city to have electricity and a telephone in every room." This former beauty was opened in 1897. Shame on the people who are responsible for the city's decline.

I live 10 minutes outside of Hershey Pa. I've seen maybe only 20 homeless people with signs outside the local Walmart begging for jobs or money in the last 20 years. I've never had one incident with a crazy person assaulting me, and all the stores are open for business. I will just move to the country and hunt food for my survival if this starts happening here. It's a shame that most of the great cities were destroyed by political corruption, greed, and social justice.

Pennsylvania is among nine states with big declines in the number of people experiencing homelessness over the last three years, per a new federal report. Driving the news: The state's homelessness rate dropped to 9.7 per 10,000 people overall in 2023, down from 10.3 per 10,000 people in 2019. That means y'all got great programs that are actually working. Hopefully struggling states, like California, can adopt similar programs (if it isn't already). That said, if you were homeless in America, where would you head? Where is the weather easiest to survive year round outside, and which state has the most programs to help the homeless? That's where I would head. ...That's California. We import the country's problems, so everyone can point to Cali as the problem child. We're just carrying the slack for others. :\

As someone who lived in LA for decades, there was never a dense population of department stores and the movie theaters were just the historic ones from the 20s-40s and they are still there. There was never a Regal Cenema around. The only bank that has really been historically there is the Wells Fargo in the business district and it's still there.

LA makes no effort whatsoever to clean up its mess. I recently appraised a property located near the intersection of the 110 and 105. There was an abandoned couch sitting along the entrance ramp to 110, so I took a picture. Later, while looking at google street views, I saw the exact same couch. The google image was more than 3 years old, and the couch was still sitting there!
