    I lived in California for a couple years and this one time I asked a girl how old she was. She replied, “my spirit and my essence are eternal”. So I countered, “Ok, how long has your physical presence been here upon this earth?” She looked at me, stunned, and said “Damn no one’s ever gotten me with that before. I’m 22.”

    My aunt and her close friend left Philly for LA about 35yrs ago. My grandparents and I went down to visit shortly after. At 6yrs old I remembered feeling like it really was a different world... 8yrs later I went to see her, my cousin, & my uncle who both were blooming architects at the time & living in the hills. Point being, this is a very accurate depiction of the transformation of everyone that stays.

    This only applies to a handful of neighborhoods. We call them the “transplant” neighborhoods. Santa Monica, West Hollywood, Studio City etc. There’s a few more but they’re the neighborhoods all of these out of town aspiring social media influencers move to. I don’t think I’ve ever met someone from Santa Monica that actually grew up there.
    If you come to LA and want to see what actual LA people are like stay away from these “Hollywood” type areas. Hollywood a derogatory term we use to describe someone that’s the typical LA stereotype. When you go to the beach go to the cities south of LAX like Redondo Beach or Torrance.
