Is it sooo dangerous that I can't walk down the street? Or is it just the media making sound like it's a mini Iraq?

And how is the earthquake situation? The only bad weather I'm used to is blizzards.

I can swim! lmao
Are you serious? The big one? Uh Oh....
Does that mean LA will become an island like on that movie "Escape from La"? I'd probably shyt my pants if I felt an Earthquake! LOL
We actually sit on top of a huge fault line like you but nothing ever happens. It's dormant, or dead or something. But you never know....

Another question is: Do you feel that it is still as dangerous now as it was in the late 80's early 90's? Or has it quieted down.

I think it's gotten worse sad to say:-(, it sure hasn't guieted down.
Not sure about that comment of South LA having the most per capita of Fools.There's fools everywhere, only with more money.:-)
The Traffic is a problem, just ask anybody stuck in traffic in LA lol.The weather is nice and sunny most of the time.I had enough of the rain during the first couple of months of this year.I love the California sunshine, i think blizzards would make me loose my mind.I'll stick with the earthquakes lol.

^^^Blizzards aren't too bad you just have to know how to drive a snow mobile!! LOL It's the shoveling that sucks as well as the driving. But when you've experienced driving through it all your life it becomes really easy to do. Just don't drive fast and you'll be good. And I figured it quieted down out there. I thought I saw statistics that showed something like that. And I heard that a lot of people are moving out also. Why?

LOL if you can drive in blizzrds then you could drive in LA traffic pretty good.They say people in LA would have a hard time driving in conditions like you have back east because we arent used to it.
I read those same statistics too about crime declining.But I guess where im at i dont see that as true with the gang violence.From what I see and hear its worse unfortunately:-(

LOL! Yeah when I do my blizzard thing people switch into the lane next to me and if there isn't one there they slow down and drive about 5 car lengths behind. Then I also do the thing that Whiteboy does. I love doing donuts. One time I tried to pass a car that was going really slow and I almost hit an oncoming car. When I swerved back into my lane I started to fish tail!! :shock: Damn near killed all my friends that were with me!!!
Is it really expensive to live in LA?
