The reality is any place is only as good as what you are doing there
if you are in the entertainment business, LA
if you are a software engineer, NorCal
California is overrated in general, if you're not in the entertainment business and just doing normal shyt you might as well be in Nevada or AZ and live cheaper that we can actually stack
If you not working for some big tech company why else would say in norcal, ain't shyt up there, Oakland doesn't even a qualify as a city to me, its too small, I see why they call it the town, it ain't shyt in san francisco except google, don't see how any working class person would stay in the bay
California is a place where you visit, get to go to the beach, etc if you live there it's because you are a single and you are trying to be an entertainer or some tech shyt, otherwise you are just wasting your time you can't stack there, its a place for rich people, you suppose to have money when you come there, people who move there broke hope to make it big end up on skidrow
plus its only a matter time before an Earthquake kills everyone there
