thanks for the info tiger31. l.a. is getting worst. economy is bad, people are racist, rude, no manners and no heart. i've been here since i was 10 and its time for a change and the grass is NOT greener. i'm also doing it for my wife (shes from redditch and birmingham) and doing it for my kids too. and yes i/we want a quiet life.

am i making a bad decision? please be honest. thanks
