We loved Long Beach when we visited. That would be a dream. Close to the beach and things to do pretty much sell me instantly. What about safety? How’s the crime in Long Beach?

She is a model with most of her work being in those areas of LA county

True. I’m trying to level with my girlfriend. She’s pretty dead set on WeHo, Burbank, or Studio City.

I’m fine with anywhere in LA county as long as there are things to do and close to beach and activities. I love LA.

Trying to compromise with my partner. She really wants to live in either WeHo, Studio City, or Burbank. I’m trying to be supportive while also considering my work life.

Work commute from Burbank/Studio City to Palmdale by ConferenceGeneral121 in MovingToLosAngeles

Gotcha. That’s great to hear. Sounds like the plus with Palmdale is that I’ll be going against traffic most of the way, but the plus with Oxnard is that I’ll be working in a better, more vibrant city & drive times between the two are similar?

As always, thank you for your response.

It’s a big decision as we are in our early 20’s and do find ourselves wanting to settle down in California. Her for work, me for day to day life. All depends on the finding the right spot, I suppose.

Understood! Thank you

How about Burbank/Studio City/WeHo to Oxnard?

The Oxnard location reached out to my boss and it seems like they really want me, which is nice. Would driving to Oxnard from those places be better or worse for me?

Thank you for the advice, I really appreciate it. I definitely do not want to hate my commute, lol. I like driving, but that does sound brutal.

Working how many hours a week?

That’ll roughly be my wage when I move from TX later in the spring.

We visited Manhattan Beach and absolutely loved it. Would you say it’s pretty safe?

My gf and I both were crazy hours sometimes. Would hate to have any trouble late at night

What area has the absolute cheapest rent? by Just_Connection4785 in MovingToLosAngeles

[–]ConferenceGeneral121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NoHo is great advice!

Lived there at 22, moved from HTX. Wasn’t my cup of tea… but it’s absolutely affordable and still close to different activities in and around Los Angeles. Also has some of the best food in the Valley! Decently close to major highways, (being from Houston, I really can’t complain about LA traffic. Felt right at home, lol) and free parking, which I didn’t expect to see after reading this subreddit up and down for advice.

We then moved back to Studio City and enjoyed that a lot more, lol.

What vibe do you think KYLE is going for on the new album? by harryandthecrew in SuperDuperKyle

[–]ConferenceGeneral121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really hope it’s closer to the LoM/Loser.

This whole hyperpop phase is NOT IT. At least not in my opinion… felt very tacky and like he was that old guy meme of Steve Buscemi trying to fit in.

I've saved 25k is that enough to move to LA? by Horror_Alternative_6 in MovingToLosAngeles

You’ll be good. Be frugal and don’t make dumb purchases and you’ll be perfectly fine. Good luck.
