| Do I Live In The City Of Los Angeles |
The Great LA Conundrum
Los Angeles is a beast of a city. It sprawls for miles, gobbling up everything in its path, from the Pacific Ocean to the San Gabriel Mountains. So, figuring out if you're actually in it can be like trying to find a parking spot in Hollywood - a frustrating, time-consuming ordeal.
Tip: Stop when confused — clarity comes with patience.
First things first: If you've seen a palm tree, a celebrity, and a traffic jam that would make a snail jealous, you're probably in Southern California. But that doesn't automatically qualify you as an Angeleno.
Tip: Stop when you find something useful.
