You can write off almost all of Southern Cali, it's naturally a desert and pumping in water and illegal 3rd worlders has only made it worse. The city parts of northern Cali are not the wholesome places with wholesome laws they were say 50 or more years ago.
Someone needs to book one heck of a lot of one-way flights to India etc and bye-bye, you stay back there in India, Oh neighbor I have not talked to in 2 years and have no desire to, and I will agree never to go over to your miserable hole of a country, myself.

Get out of the cities and out into the small, northern towns, the ones that have been there a while and it's great. Go into a breakfast place and everyone speaks English. Fathers are there with their little kids and the kids are talking instead of screaming and trying to steal the saltshakers.
