Beautiful - if they'd do something about the homel

I lived here for two years. The place is an absolute paradise except for two things (a) homeless everywhere, peeing on everything and constantly begging for money and (b) there are NO cheap stores. No Wal-Mart, Target, anything reasonable. There is one dollar store in the bad part of town and that's it. If you're going to live there, you want to be north of Wilshire - and plan on heading into the Valley to do your shopping if you don't want to pay an arm and two legs for things like toilet paper. Other than that, the climate is perfect, the north end of the city is beyond beautiful and safe and the public schools are so good even the celebrities' kids go there. Plenty of good jobs. High rent, but that's SoCal.
