Hello all out in Prince.org land!

I got a tremendous offer for a job in Anaheim, CA. working in the Clinical Research field and I am trying to find out about moving to Cali?

Do we having anyone living in the Los Angeles area on the Org?

Do you like living there?

Any help would be tremendously appreciated!

Thanks

Mutts

where are you moving from?

Once thing I ALWAYS hear is that rent is ridiculously high in California.

Good Morning,

I am moving from Philadelphia, and I have never even been to California before. So this is an exciting thought for me right now.

Hi,

The best part for me is that the company will pay for my moving expenses and pay the rent for a condo for 3 years if I accept the job!

I just want to find out what its like living in California!

Thanks

well, as a native I'm a bit biased, but I say visit first and if you like it go for it! the cost of living will probably be a little higher here, but L.A.'s a great city

Never mind, I said to save your money, but if the company will pay your rent, that's awesome!!

don't wear red articles of clothing, or blue.
those are the colors of the bloods and the crips.

I thought the Colors thing was so 1991! Are you kidding or serious?

Not that I would be hanging on the street corners and all! I am a single Dad with an 8 year old!

Evenstar's advice is solid. Definitely visit first.

It is crap!



Not to mention Anaheim is in Orange county not LA Anaheim Hills is a wonderful area as is Brea. Infact a good deal of wonderful cities are nearby. Do you know what city the company intend for you to live? There is a good mix of people and lifestyle is moderate.

Notice snoop dog never wears anything red?...or ice cube?
is not crap either!!

Don't drink the water.

purplerein said:

Yes, in the 80's it was huge and in the 90's it died out and now only IF you are in certain areas that most certainly guaranteed he wont be anywhere near, it could be a gang issue. I wear any color as does everybody I know.....

Yeah only in New York do that!

Bring a backup generator!

purplerein said:

LOL at you guys!


I promise not to wear any red bandanas or pump any Rap tunes when I come to visit in January, okay?!

Anyway, the company is Based in Anaheim, but I am a Clinical Research Monitor so I travel to hospitals and I have a home office. So my options are wide open when I look for a house. I will look up Brea and Anaheim Hills and if there are others cities to look at, let me know!

Thanks for the help

bring bullet proof vests!

muttley said:

do it!

purplerein said:

yes, maybe they dont, but Snoop is affiliated with the Crips! I wore blue all the time and nobody gave a shit because I wasn't in a gang.

Now, if you're talking bandanas around the head I might agree with you.

Hello again!

I want to thank everyone who has sent me a reply and a personal note! I am a brand new single dad who has a 8 year old daughter and we need a new life for her.

I have been awarded custody of her due to my wife having a nervous breakdown over Religious issues and one hell of an overbearing mother in law.

Regardless, it is all in the past now, and I have been given a great opportunity in Cali and I am overwhelmed with the kind thoughts of the people on this website.

Thank you all again

Your dawg,

Mutts

right on!

moving is a lot of work, but fun, exciting, and rewarding

Anaheim is not LA. It's a world apart totally. It's Orange County.
A part of me will always love Southern California.
I don't have any advice. Just make sure you'll be okay.
It is nice. I spent time in Los Angeles most of the time anyway.
