Bad when the Lakers win

I have been in the downtown LA area for 2 years, in a loft. The area has some homeless where I live (Southpark area), though they are pretty none aggressive. The area has bike security and lots of police use the local Shell station as a kind of hub for the area (a good thing). So, overall, safety is not something I think about there.
The worst thing is the Lakers fans. the last 2 years have produced riots after the Lakes won the NBA championships. Our building has been tagged, windows broken, and, as a member of the neighborhood, I worry about me car getting damaged. This has made the area a place I would not recommend to anyone. The prices for lofts, either to buy or rent, are pretty high, and between you and I the area upkeep is so so, it being pretty dirty.
