I see.
I live in the REAL world, NorthEast of CA.
Having some CA neighbors over for cocktails in two hours, their summer home is across the street but live in the Sacramento area. Good folks as long as I NEVER mention politics.
Dr PimplePopper, MD just a lot or two East of us, is a CA transplant. We don’t talk after I forced him to control his dogs...
Have an Astronaut/Astro Physicist and spouse just down the street - CRAZY libs, but decent folks otherwise. They are from Montana but were in CA for their entire careers...
Aside from that my neighbors are decent, except for the retired FBI agent. When his lips move, he’s lying...
Could be worse - but I left Bel Air long ago...
In Beverly Hills they would run you over with their HORRIBLE driving first. Then they would pontificate about saving the planet as you bleed out from your wounds.
No real safe places in California.
