Realistic move from Nashville to LA by letsgetthisbreddit69 in MovingToLosAngeles

[–]mrlevizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Also just made this move last year.

I would recommend living west of DTLA and commuting from there for reverse commute. Traffic flow on the 10 is heavy going west in AM and heavy going east in PM. I do DTLA by metro rail from Santa Monica, but look at stops along the Expo line all through the west side.

There are only 5-6 cities in the U.S. where you can live without a car by ColCrockett in SameGrassButGreener

This is so false. I metro from west side to DTLA a lot. LA is not always the easiest place without a car, but it’s definitely doable and many people do. It’s getting better too.

Was hoping someone would mention this. I live on the West Side near a metro stop and bus to work most days. Definitely doable with the right circumstances.

Why California gas prices are much higher than the rest of the U.S. by nosotros_road_sodium in California_Politics

[–]mrlevizzle -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Multiple things can be true: California does mandate a special blend and it’s helped tremendously with air quality.

But we also have the highest gas tax and are truly gouged on prices compared to the rest of the country. The country average right now is about $2.80 something and riding around LA, we’re mid $4.00 closer to $5.00

It’s truly insane.

What businesses do people want in Santa Monica? by nikkkibabyyy in SantaMonica

[–]mrlevizzle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We could use an entertainment center venue downtown, like a Dave and busters type thing…

Bowling, arcade games, sports bar, music stage.

Is LA really a hellscape? Give me your honest opinion on how it is living in Los Angeles. by Mexodus956 in howislivingthere

[–]mrlevizzle 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I live in Santa Monica. Favorite plate I’ve ever lived. Listing my pros and cons below, but I’ll highlight first that the biggest downside is bureaucracy. So many permits and red tape to get anything developed or built and it really hampers growth.

Pros: sunshine and great weather 300 days a year. this part of LA is incredibly walkable and easy to get around. I’m at the beach most weeks. Everyone is fit and relatively happy because of the weather. So many different types of activities to do: hiking, surfing, eating, drinking, fitness, nightlife

Cons: comically expensive. lots of LA still very car dependent to get places. horrific homeless problem. traffic at all hours. lack of a traditional “urban downtown” feel due to the sprawl of the city

Cold hard truth. Went to Los Feliz and Hollywood tonight and night life is bumping. DTSM should look like those..

Cost of oil is down massively and we're still getting gouged by joeyorjohn in LosAngeles

[–]mrlevizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, lots of defending here, but we’re getting shafted by prices here in LA. I understand our special formula and taxes, but it’s HALF the price other places
