Then our Gov can't say California.

Anyway,...

That is the sound of more than one cat talking.

I live in Santa Monica and have no complaints.
It is pricey...but we have Yahoo, Sony Music, UMG, MTV/VH1, and Revolution. We are very close to the Sony lot in Culver City and the Fox lot in Century City.

And there's a beach right nearby. and the Aero theater.

That's my two cents.

And that's why I pitch Culver City. It's close to Santa Monica (and hence all that stuff), but way less expensive. And still very nice. With the same clean air.





Pfft, you'd think she'd know that.

"Tems", "Lie-ster",

Macnehster is "Manchester" (the "e" syllable is there, but very very short.

Good luck with Worcestershire. It's approximately Worshester

Another vote for Culver City - we lived there for about 10 years. Close enough to everything but for a better price.

San Diego street names are impossible to pronounce. I've lived on Caminito Cantelina and Avenida Alcachofa - both of which I have no idea how to pronounce.

Well, as somebody who is about to leave Los Angeles for San Francisco, I say, Welcome and Goodbye. I would choose NYC myself, but if I had to do Los Angeles all over again I would live someplace between Los Feliz and Pasadena. (Silverlake, Glendale, etc.)

Good luck.

Cool.

Our B&B is in Belgravia on a Mews (or one street over, I don't remember).

I'd like to cast my vote for job first, home second.

Although I would be remiss in my shameless self-promotion if I didn't put in a plug for good ol' OC. If you guys decide there's work you wanna do here, I can't help plugging Lake Forest. It's right next to Irvine w/out the Nazi HOA, and also right next to Mission Viejo (and both Lake Forest and Mission Viejo rank very highly on the annual "safest cities" rankings). And you can get a 2-br, 1190 sq ft. townhome for under $400K (in fact, some jerk in my neighborhood has theirs listed for $355K right now, seriously undercutting our refi prospects...)
