Having lived both in LA and Bay Area the biggest difference is that Life in LA doesn't come with any baggage. You don't have to change the world. You don't have to launch the next big idea. You don't chase money as hard as Bay Area (yes). You don't have to keep telling yourself and the world that "my city is awesome". You just live a good life with good food, good people, good work.
- javajosh 13y agoMy sense is that people in LA really want to get to be on stage. No, you don't have to be a superstar, but people in the business want to keep working in show business, more than anything. And for exactly the same reason game developers keep doing it: because they love it. They love doing things just because people enjoy it, and not because it has to be done. There is joy in frivolity.
