My brother lived in North Hollywood for decades and never went to the beach. He claimed that LA’s biggest asset was it was easy to be gay(he’s gay). Besides that, you are waiting for the next earthquake or riot
And those who think the Koreans stood them off in Koreatown because of some pic of them on a roof top with long guns...Way too little too late. What really happened was the rioters left Koreatown looted and burned out.
