La Canada

Most boring suburb of Los Angeles. More boring than the other suburbs of LA; there is absolutely nothing to do, including even a prosaic mall. Kids are stuck up, superficial and often nasty and mean-spirited. Moved here from NJ for the good public schools which was stupid because my parents had me and my sister apply to private and boarding schools anyway. We were trapped in a house without anyone my age for two years on a hill that was a mile from town where there was nothing to do anyway. The kids at my school were incredibly mean because I was new as a seventh grader and I spent the next decade recovering from suicidal depression and hating my life. DO NOT MOVE HERE
La Canada sucks.

La Habra

An OC City, right next to Brea, Fullerton, La Mirada, and Rowland Heights. Used to be really nice, but has kind of gone to shit over the years. It's lower income, and so it has the beautiful moniker of "the Gheto of Brea". It is also home to a very large Hispanic population.
La Habra, "An All American City". What a joke. Its a bunch of beaners.

La Canada

the n should have a tilde... la cuh-NYAH-duh.

the little suburb that could,
and would create homogenous people
who think, act and look alike...

squashing the bulk of real creativity...
yuck

predominantly white, but significant asian minority esp. korean and then chinese.

but at the same time a safe pleasantville

where memories are made in a bubble

we have a "good educational system"
La Canada? Where's that?

la raza

Literally, "the race".

A Hispanic advocacy organization. Seems to primarily be concerned with securing increased access to mainstream American society for illegal aliens, as well as public relations efforts to legitimize them.
(1)If La Raza spent more time advocating for change in Mexico than they did in the USA, both countries would be better off.

(2)La Raza protested the Border Patrol's recent enforcement actions in Southern California.
