I actually do like the beach areas, but Hermosa and Redondo ended up feeling too much like a college town.
yeah, i don't hang out there that much anymore. nor do I ever go to Hollywood...usually Santa monica, venice, manhattan beach or downtown.

Well, he certainly deserves a nice, long summer in the sun.............. .............then come back to get ready for next season.
I lived in between Venice and Westchester for three years right after high-school, I felt the same way as Damian ... for about six months and then the douchebaggery and lack of discernible seasons got to me.
I love Los Angeles. My heart is still in Portland though. But anyone that doesn't like l.a. haven't been to the right places.
Only took me two months to feel that way. I've never felt so alone in my life. I could actually see the people judging whether I was worth knowing when they'd meet me down there. "Does this guy have anything that can benefit me?" The city is built so strongly on networking that it really ruins social interaction. My sister had a bunch of "friends" who all ditched her as soon as she stopped dating a producer. Of course you love LA, you have money.
