SoCal newbie, experienced yak angler. - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Because of the shorter commute to work, better parking (especially if you have a kayak), cheaper rent, and closer proximity to the water, I would recommend getting a place in the south bay. Downtown and West Hollywood are great places to live, but are very expensive (super gentrified). If you can afford it though, and aren't concerned about the other issues i mentioned, Downtown and West Hollywood are super cool places to live. Can you say hipster??? Welcome to socal and keep rockin that Dodger hat...the NY hat you can leave in Arizona.

LOL, yeah, I fit in with that crowd. Not nearly as douchy though as I've been on both sides of that trend (I'm a life long musician, athlete, and outdoorsman.

)

The Dodger hat was a gift from my brother inlaw. That whole side of the family is from SoCal. The Met's hat is one of many in my hatbox. My mom is a native NY'er and I've spent A LOT of time with family back there. It's kinda in my blood (just like the University of Arizona.)

Welcome ! What part of Arizona are you from? I have an extra Yak if you get the itch to fish.
