Yeah, that would definitely not be allowed here. The City or an HOA would be on it so fast. My city doesn’t even allow you to have an RV or trailer in your yard if someone is sleeping in it. They actually have people who drive around looking for things like that, or unpermitted structures in your back yard.
Florida has it's blight as well. There ain't no future in your frontin.😶

The city in which you live is probably a fraction of the size of LA. Apples and Oranges....
Florida is suburb after suburb up against each other much as is Southern California. Every bit as crowded. Been through both. Florida looks fresh. Much of urban/suburban California looks worn out. California excels at having beautiful homes up on mountain sides. That's about the only real plus I saw. It helps immensely that Florida has a lot more water. Lush vegetation everywhere. Southern California has better weather.

That is a possibility.
Given the current conditions, D3 (Extreme Drought) and D4 (Exceptional Drought) if a fire were to start, it is highly unlikely there would be enough water available to extinguish it.

Indeed. The wineries are all lush and green, while the peasants are told to flush their toilets less.

When I was a kid and young adult, wineries were very few and far between in my area. Now they are absolutely everywhere.
I can tell you without a doubt (as I have lived it) that there is a direct cause and effect between the proliferation of wineries, stratification, and everything that makes everything worse for working-class citizens living in the area.

Odd how all the winery owners are rich Democrats

Los Angeles County reported Monday that over 27% of the signatures submitted on petitions to recall District Attorney George Gascón were invalid — after reporting that less than 1% of mail-in ballots were invalid in the 2020 election.

The county reported that it rejected 195,783 of the 715,833 signatures submitted, roughly 27.3%. The reasons given included that some voters were found to be unregistered; incorrect addresses were given; or signatures did not match those on file.

However, in January 2021, the county reported that less than 1% of the 3,422,585 vote-by-mail ballots submitted were rejected. The test for the validity of ballots is similar to that of petitions, involving checking signatures and addresses.

Given that the State of California mailed ballots to every voter on the rolls, rather than just to those who had requested them as in years past, there was a high likelihood of error; some voters reported receiving multiple ballots, often for prior residents. (These problems persisted in the 2021 recall election for Gov. Gavin Newsom, as personally witness by this author.)

Yet the county reported that 99.38% of vote-by-mail ballots were accepted in 2020. The number of vote-by-mail ballots that were rejected due to inaccurate signatures (12,135) in the election was close to the number rejected for that reason in the recall petitions (9,490), though the number of signatures to be examined in the election was roughly five times greater.

This state and city infuriates me to no end.
