I don't live there, but my aunt does, and we visit her quite a bit, so it's pretty much become my second home. Fun city. Wouldn't really know what to tell you though.

i dont live there but, i go there for vacation, concerts, or the airport semi-often since I live in California. it's not one of my favorite CA cities..
I like San Francisco and some of the other coastal cities (not Orange County) much better. as well as New York City, but thats way on the other side of the country.

LA, Los Angeles, or LA, louisana? D:

I'm a 5 hour drive away from LA, the city. Not even in the state. haha. But I've been there dozens of times and uh.. it's crazy? I've been on a college campus there before and it looked so peaceful :3

I find it depressing.
Others may disagree, though.
Depends on your personality. Good luck with school, eh? =)

I live on a coastal city. It's awesome, although there's some crazy weather. On the other coast from LA, though... so I'm no help.

Oooh, me. Kind of.

It's a lot bigger than people think. There are different parts of LA.

I don't live in LA, but it's only minutes away from me...

WELL, it's crowded, diverse ethnicities, but mostly Hispanic and African American. I wouldn't suggest walking around at night. Even though LA has this clean, nice, trendy image, it really isn't that way. There's alot of homeless, and there are some streets you don't even want to walk on because something could happen half way. You may think "Aw, homeless people are nice..." yeah... well ours are crazy.

Not to disappoint you though. What school are you going to?

I do!

First thing you need to buy in LA is a CAR!
