I live in LA area, and I’ve noticed Armenians are NOT popular. I’ve heard bitter complaints about them, people moving away and saying it was just because of the Armenians, people taking their kids out of schools with Armenians in them, etc. For some reason, they are not well-liked people.
When I lived in Hollywood we used to go to the Von’s Market on Sunset. Then we went there one week and it had been renamed “Rons”. The clerks were all Armenians and were very rude and made it clear that they didn’t want any Anglos there. We never went again.
My landlord was an Iraqi who had come to the US with his family. He made a big point that they were NOT Armenians but were Assyrian Christians. A BIG point. LOL. They hated getting lumped in with welfare cheats.
Though that family did introduce us to the wonderful Mideast pastries they cooked up at Christmas time. Really wonderful.
I have a friend that lives in Glendale. Owns a whole bunch of rentals there. He can’t stand all the Armenians that have moved in there. He says they’re rude and obnoxious....and don’t know how to drive. lol
