In '02 I was living in a condo in Santa Clarita...Almost moved to AZ to attend MMI, but didnt. I got a relatively nice place between the city and suburbs: 2.5 acres w/ mind our own business neighbors, in a hidden lil caynon cut nestled between the cities. But venturing anywhere beyond home it sucks. I could easily get a pretty penny for this place, or rent it out for top dollar and bounce out! I been really getting the itch to relocate lately...My lifestyle is not LA conducive and never has been. Many people I meet from the Midwest/East coast/South say I belong there. Only caveat is leaving my cushy job working for the hollywood studios as a set builder ( get paid well to play w/ welding and carpentry tools all day, no codes to follow, just make sure it looks nice on camera and wont kill anybody). I can collect pension in another 8 yrs.... maybe I wait it out, if the studios ever open back up....Sold!
But dang do I have the itch to GTF outta LA. The traffic has gotten ridiculous, its not just in the cities anymore. I feel liberated just being able to reach the speed limit. Downtown, Hollywood, and the west side are a few mile apart, but their own bubbles of a world, and a mission to traverse, just because of the traffic. even the suburbs beyond have gotten packed. Hence Kobe commuting by helicopter. 22 yrs of driving here,My ranger and I have had enough stop and go. Worst part is its mostly idiots that refuse to move over and let pass. Keep right pass left rule doesnt exist here. Its just 6 lanes wide of Prius driving in parallel 10mph below the speed limit as if their practicing formation, but pull and up and look over, you will see a zombie. Yes they are real, and have been thriving in LA for awhile unnoticed.
