We've considered relocating to LA and the universal advice of everyone who's lived there was "it's a great place as long as you don't ever go anywhere". According to multiple people, if you stay home/very close (e.g. someone went to college there and rarely left its general vicinity), it's fine; as soon as you need to go anywhere it's hell because every mode of transportation is abysmal. And that is often the 3rd largest part of one's life after office time and sleep. For me personally, even SFBA was too much in that regard so we quickly dropped SoCal from consideration :)
