Los Angeles
A mostly Spanish speaking city that looks like a Mexican village anywhere outside the city's West side.
A huge, flat, ghetto.

Alvy Singer: "Los Angeles I don't want to move to a city where the only cultural advantage is being able to make a right turn on a red light."-Annie Hall (1977).
I lived in LA for my 4 year college time.
City is mostly dirty and full of homeless. Take any bus and you'll see for yourself. Or just walk in the street.
People are generally materialistic, fake. They think they're better than you if you're not a pretentious phony one like them. Not that you cant find other phonies in America, but per square mile it's more in LA.
Angelanos think they're racially diverse, but they're not. And they're racially divided.
It's not like you can strike a conversation with most easily bc e/o is so snobby and full of themselves. Humbleness and being yourself is not a trait Angelanos embody, because deep down people really are interested in what others will say all the frigging time. You cant be silly, awkward, it's "uncool", not fun, to most. Fitting into a shallowness culture is the most important thing here: Rich, famous, pretty, and/or hot are Angelinos inner values, more than in any other city.
The average one way 3 hour traffic makes you almost suicidal.
Cultural offerings in LA? Showing off a beach body at the pier. Or seeing Nila Tequila wannabes. And this comes from someone who's been to every museum here...
It also gets ridiculously warm (100++). Not enough rain.
IF YOU ARE SHALLOW, a bum, OR work in the entertainment industry, then LA will be a good city for you.
