My youngest daughter, late 20s, and her girl friend (not romantic) just moved to LA, without a job, with a few months of money in the bank and with few contacts (her friend's brother lives there).
They've been talking about this move for a year. They view LA as a paradise for weather, liberalism , diversity, veganism, and perhaps THC and other enhancers. They believe there are better jobs in LA than in Miami, which is probably true, but the COL and taxes are high. My daughter has done campaign work (what better place than Florida) and worked as an associate in the marijuana industry - she's passionate about her work, often too much, but seems to get bored or frustrated after a year or so. She was the only budmaster from Florida in Green Entrepreneur's recent magazine. I told her the timing of the move to LA could be better.
First thing is to find a place to live. She and her friend are at an AirBnB near USC. They've looked at places near downtown LA (Belmont Station) but are also looking in Korea town. They want a 2 BR/2 Bath for $1000 each, including utiilties - Belmont is in the range. Oh - she has no car but her friend does, so she plans to use uber and public transportation initially.
Any suggestions?
