Re: Fact finding mission. LA vs ATL
The problem with LA is that everything in LA is going to get worse and worse
Working in the industry doesn't really having anything to do with why LA sucks...traffic is a nightmare, smog, dirty beaches, housing is waaay overpriced, everything is expensive(gas/food/etc), the people are pretty lame overall, etc. Now there are a lot of cool things about LA too but long term I'd say the negatives out weigh the cool things esp as you get older.
I also know several doctor friends who love it...but that is only because they live and work in one area(Pacific Palisades/Beverly Hills) etc...and never leave that area.
San Diego would be a much better choice if your moving to S. Cali...but it obv wouldn't work in your case.
I doubt going to UCLA would make that huge a difference in her career than going to Emory.
