Born and raised and left when I was 30.
I'll do the best TLDR I can do...

- There is no more California culture it died after 2008.
- Geography good.
- Pacific Northwest good. Extremely beautiful and majestic.
- Cities ULTRA bad.
- No jobs.
- Everybody is an asshole.
- If you meet someone "nice" they're just trying to use you to accomplish/get something.
- Money is everything to people who live there. You don't have money? Then kill yourself. That is the California motto.
- Everything you want to do on a weekend will take at least 1/4th of your paycheck
- Impossible to afford rent
- Even if you can find housing, the state offer nothjng different then what your leaving.
- It will take the police an average of 1 hour to respond to your 911 call.
- And this is the biggest truth I can drop. Ever single woman there is ugly. I am not joking. It's rare you'll find a woman that isn't an ugly piece of shit.

I did my best. I lived in SoCal my whole life. One day I was working at the Rose Bowl and a football team from Nebraska was in town for a game and I had to work the grounds of the Nebraskins camping there.
Every single woman was beautiful, every person was extremely nice and said hello and smiled, and everybody had good Grammer.
Dropped the illusion of California real quick and I packed my shit up and left to South Dakota a year later.
Best decision I ever made. Don't fall for the California trap.
It's an irreparable shithole.
It's best to visit the place rather than live there.
A road trip through California? 10/10 I recommend.
Live there? Don't.
Treat it like Vegas.
