Rockford’s America is a memory now.

His California, especially. When I watch Perry Mason, I think I would love to live in that LA. Even by the time of Rockford, it had its seedy underbelly, but still a lot of attractions. Now, its all gone, and I haven't even been to California yet.

Well, the beach cities and the Valley were fun back then!

Now a house in Hermosa is a coupla million and the surfers all have to live in Hawthorne.

And the Valley is just Mexico. ValGirls all gone....

Guess the Seventies were the end of middle class LA which is the point of the article. funny thing is that no one knew that then. The party was supposed to go on forever...
