Admittedly, I didn't live in LA proper (which I might have liked better), but if I'd had to live in Southern California much longer, I might well have killed myself or someone else.
I hated the unvarying weather, the concentration of people, the fact that it took forever to get from point A to point B, the expense, earthquakes, wildfires, and the Byzantine bureaucracy for Every. Goddamn. Thing. I hated that the $10/ticket movie theater smelled like piss. I found the people to be pretty unfriendly, but coming from Boston, that may not be a problem.
On the upside, there's an ethnic food for every conceivable taste, and there's probably a lot of culture in LA. And if you like looking at mountains, there's a crap ton of them.
