I had to temporarily live in LA for three months during which time I came to understand that LA is really a terribly place for humans to live. Yes LA “has everything” but it is all a 40 minute drive from wherever you are one-way. People in LA think driving 90 minutes round trip to go out for dinner is normal behavior because the city has so twisted their concept of “normal”
LA has very few places that are “pretty” surrounded by a hundred miles of sunbaked 1980’s low-rise stucco squalor sandwiched between freeways. It’s ugly, inconvenient and fully self-absorbed

So it’s city prices but rural Ohio transit times? Yeah I’ll stick with my 15 minute drive
But our food though, amirite?
