Just dont cause of poltics

The Bay always seemed like my kinda place

 

[A1aaa]

Two different worlds. LA is more comparable to LBC or SD than the Bay.

I'm personally am not the biggest fan of the Bay outside of Oakland and Berkeley. Every time I go up there, I'm happy to take that flight right back down to SoCal after a few days.

Bay Area music gets a lot of spins in SoCal tho.

[murksiderock]

when people think California they think both nor cal and so cal the same

But really so cal and nor cal completely diff places



La

Weather
Weed
Gangbanging
Women who are fine
Bad traffic
Larger Hispanic presence
A lot to do and see



Bay Area

Hustlers and pimping
Weather not great
It’s extremely high rent
More of a black presence
More of a Asian presence
Buildings and hills
Slang is diff
Thicker women

Folks get California twisted

Also Sacramento the valley diff from both places

Sacramento is basically like the SFV region of LA. Lotta people don't even realize a good portion of the SFV is actually LA city neighborhoods, but I digress...

I have fam in Pacoima and Van Nuys and those areas always reminded me of Sac with the layout, build, architecture, banging. You could even say Sac looks like Pasadena....Sac has a more suburban nature than most of the city of LA, so you can get the vibe that you're in an outer LA neighborhood or suburb...

Sac uses a lot of Bay slang and takes a lot of cultural influence from the Bay...but Sac also has it's own culture and is the center of the Central Valley, which has 5 million people in it's own right. My city crazy underrated...

You tripping too, there is way, way, way more of a black presence and culture in LA...

@Ashley Banks you from Oakland?

This is a great point.

For black professional its more opportunities in the bay area with the tech field.

Its high rent there tho. There black buisnesses that hire tech workers.

You're tripping again, way more opportunities for blacks in LA than the Bay, period. Nobody black has the Bay as a top option unless they have relatives there. And you named the racist ass tech industry lmao, they are widely recognized for marginalizing the opportunities blacks in tech have----->so the black tech talent instead gets filtered to the East Coast and the South, whereas otherwise The Bay could entice them...

Your thread has a great premise but you forgot to mention how racist The Bay is, it's just glossed over in comparison to LA...

The Bay has Bloods and Crips, they are just the minority by a mile...

When people say "The Bay" they only really mean The City (SF) or Oakland. There's active B/C hoods in Fairfield, San Jo, and at one point there were B/C hoods in EPA, Vallejo, Richmond. I'm forgetting some outer cities here...

They never got a foot in strong in SF or Oakland, politics are different, but them nikkas gangbanging out there too. They get gang injunctions, there's thousands of block sets, nikkas set trip and all that. They bang, they just don't ride the B or the C...
