3) My employer has no one on my floor making less than $100K and many making several million per year.

4) The elementary school in my district is ranked as the number one school in the state and one of the top 25 in the entire country. Our local high school is also ranked extremely high.

5) I traveled to LA many times during previously for board meetings. While housing is extremely expensive in that area, your numbers are ridiculously inflated. There are plenty of very nice houses in excellent areas for far less than $2-4 million dollars. This took me about 2 minutes:
I agree that most of LA is an overrated overcrowded shithole. The better areas are Calabasas, Malibu, Palos Verdes, and a decent chunk of the OC.

It's amazing the lengths people will go to to live in SoCal. LA and Inland are mostly junk, depressing, and far from "real" California yet people will pay ridiculous prices to live there.
