what are 2 bedroom apartments going for to rent in SoCal these days?

[QuietTruth]

Why is it so much for a rent? In the thousands is fuckin' crazy!

[We Fly High]

yeah man, cali property is just crazy expensive. its just all area and location.

[Low Key]

Damn! I paid $750 a month for my 2 bedroom apartment. And we didn't have to pay gas or water, only electric. But in the winter up here, if you can't pay your electric bill, you get it free.

well if youre living with your girl why dont u just get a studio or one bedroom?

I've never looked at many studios to rent before. Theres not as much of those out east as over there. And I always need an extra room to practice/jam in thats why it would be great if i found a 2 bedroom.

[We Fly High]

i dont know if you'll be able to jam in any of these apartments.. neighbors would prob complain?

[reguLAtor]

I'm looking for the same thing... and the lowest I've seen is $900, but it's a shitty location in some ghetto ass area.  Something decent can be had for maybe 1150-1200 minimum.  Thats my whole fuckin paycheck right there though.

Just stay in Mass. The only reason you should come to LA is if you already got a cool job waiting for you. I know i'm gonna get lots of hate, but after seeing a little bit of the rest of the world, i'm starting to realize how boring and dead LA is, and it's incredibly materialistic - we're talking motherfuckers living with their parents in a 2 bedroom apartments while driving SL500 Benz's. To go out in LA you need @ least 50$ per person to have a decent time. People are really stressed out and everyone's in their cars and all in all, except for the food and the weather, there's nothing that's better about LA than anywhere else. And yeah, you won't find anything for under 1400 if you wanna live somewhere where you won't have to wear a vest and have a gun... if you're about Boston, you're probably not gonna like it in SoCal. Have you thought about San Francisco/Berkeley? I've been there and it's way more exciting, plus the people are a lot more chill and open-minded

LA aint boring, but you got it right with being Incredibly materialistic. how could u say its boring?

[inkredible562]

cuz everything's so spread apart you gotta drive like half an hour from one place to another. Ultimately you just say fuck it and end up chilling at someone's house and smoking a joint, which you can pretty much do anywhere. Plus people in LA suck, so I go out i pretty much don't feel like meeting strangers except if my friends know them or something. Everyone's so damn hostile, it's like you're competing with them on every level. I'm not the only one to say this though, all the LA people in my program in Barcelona agree w/me on these statements. I agree though, that it doesn't HAVE to be boring in LA, but you really gotta make an effort and go out of your way to do something interesting, and it will cost you. In barcelona all u gotta do is step outside of your place and there's like 25 bars within a 100 yard radius, and it's not just on one strip, it's all around, on every tiny street. Not only that, everyone's always walkin around, having coffee, playing music, just people watching.. it's sick. That's kind of what Frisco is like, and Boston is more or less similar, but LA? C'mon, every place has its own parking so you don't even have to walk for more than 2 minutes a day from your car to the front door of your house or whatnot... All this isolation creates a society that's fucking introverted but at the same time is trying to maximize their fun when they're actually doing something liesurely, which makes it all even more fake. LA is fucking fake all the way though, and sadly most people in LA haven't seen shit and think that it's the only way things can be. True story

[Sparegeez]

^^ You're comparing LA to Barcelona

yeah man, the european lifestyle is pretty damn good... but that shit get's boring too, there's too much goin on in places like that imo... my city sounds alot like L.A just on a much smaller scale, and yeah it has it's downsides, but the chilled lifestyle is second to none.

how long were you in spain for?

how long were you in spain for?

I'm still in Barcelona, homie. For another almost 5 months, so i'm gonna try to make the most of it. I love this place. The only thing is, the Catalans are impossible people, completely inapproachable, you can't even talk to the girls. But at least there are thousands of other people living here who are cool as fuck and all the friends i've made here are from south america, other parts of europe, canada, u.s, and a couple from other parts of Spain. U ever been here?

LA is a grown up city, and it seems to me you want everything kinda handed to you, you want to find treasure without looking. and money is never an issue for me, i swear ive gone to free concerts, free tv tapings, free art exhibits, come on now, and its all top notch shit, and without spending a dime. Where else in the world can you do all that?
I think you might be finding things "fake" a lot because almost everything entertaining out here is a serious business. from clubs to shows, even the free shows, everything is taken seriously, and you are not ready to be serious. You are afraid to meet new people because they are "Fake" but you dont even give them a chance at all to begin with. Come on now!
