San Diego. LA is gross and very ghetto, Miami is in Florida so that’s an immediate no.

LA varies in quality of life greatly depending on where you live.

I think it has the most diverse set of microcultures of any big city. There's no specific LA you can really define as the whole city.

Across the board, it's crowded, expensive, there are lots of homeless people and crime is high.

I feel like life is great in the beach cities, but not so much as you drive inland.

San Diego or Miami. Both 🔥 but SD is a smaller market (except biotech)
