Moving to Los Angeles...

Question

I'm moving to los angeles in about 6-7 months and i wanted to see if anyone had any tips, tricks, or website suggestions (anything and everything please). I've already started planning (been planning for a year or so, as best i could). Help? Anyone who lives there with ideas?

Answer 1

I'm from LA county, but I'm not sure what you need help with.  Tips or tricks for what?  Planning what?  I wanna show off.... LOL but what are you asking?

Answer 2

Move close to where you work, and try to live near a rail line.  Do not underestimate the traffic.  A ten mile commute can take an hour during rush time.  

I guess just take it easy, go in with an open mind.  LA is a big city with plenty to do depending on your tastes.  So explore the place at your own pace and have fun.

Answer 3

All the hookers have STD's so don't **** any of them, pretty much gang and lots of action town.

Answer 4

Live close to your work.

Figure out non-freeway routes for your commute.

Get familiar with Yelp.com for suggestions of all kinds.

LA is a great town, but it's HUGE.  There are little pockets of paradise all over the place...you just gotta find yours.  Hidden gems make LA what it is.

Also, I hope you like ethnic food, because I think this might be the best city in the world for good, authentic ethnic food.
