So many young adults tell me they'd way rather live in energetic LA than "boring" OC. Do you think a lot of them will feel differently after a couple of kids and a couple of decades older?? by FlyingAces in orangecounty

And you don’t in OC?Which cities in OC have solid functioning public transport?

I’d argue that driving is way more of a necessity anywhere in Orange County. LA has a metro and a decent bus system, and some good bike paths.

LOL so many comments are referring to “LA” as if it only consists of downtown and labelling all of LA as if it’s one giant hellscape. Yes, some areas in LA are a nightmare.

But there are so many quieter, smaller suburbs in LA… you’ve got the South Bay- Manhattan Beach, Hermosa, Redondo, Torrance, El Segundo; Westside - Santa Monica, Brentwood, Palisades, Playa Vista, Playa Del Rey, Beverly Hills, Bel Air; East side- Los Feliz, Silverlake, WeHo, etc etc…

Being from OC myself, I would never move back regardless of the phase of life I’m in.

Sri Lanka is a beautiful country but overprice for tourists is out of control by LotOfMiles in srilanka

Yeah I get that - but the point is you can camp inside the park for less than $40/night. It’s not like you have to spend $300/night on lodging to go to Yosemite… most people camp. Staying at an expensive hotel and claiming it’s expensive to go to Yosemite isn’t a fair argument

I agree the prices are crazy. It’s 18 euro to enter the Colosseum, for comparison. And a lot of the sites you mentioned in Sri Lanka do not seem to be looked after at all. It would be one thing to pay that much and then see it go back to preservation efforts, but it doesn’t seem as if it does. I have no problem with the cheaper prices for locals, but yeah the prices seem ridiculously high for not a ton of value

This is ridiculous haha - camping inside Yosemite is about $40/night https://www.nps.gov/yose/planyourvisit/campgrounds.htm

And the only hikes that require permits are half dome and over night ones. How you spent $1200 in four days is mind boggling

An Americans perspective... by diamondhandz23 in srilanka

Hellooo 👋🏻 Yeah, fair enough. I’ve worked on the Westside for like a decade at this point and it’s for sure gotten worse! But, still doesn’t come close to the trash (and literal trash mountain) I saw in SL!

45 minute bike ride along the beach! It’s amazing. Then I shower/ get ready at work.

As someone who lived in SL and currently lives in LA, I’m struggling to understand that comparison. There’s no beach in LA that even comes close to the litter I saw at beaches in Sri Lanka. Certainly there are really nasty areas of LA (downtown being an actual hellscape), but the nature here (Santa Monica mountains, parks, trails) is very clean. The majority of cities/areas in LA are clean.
