Water is way damn cold though.

But once you start moving inshore. Temp changes,
and so does the city.

Yea,in some ways,as you move inland, it's not only a temperature gradient,but also an income gradient.Elevation is a complicating factor though.All the hills and mountains keep people with money from living in just one geographical area.For instance, that whole area in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains(i.e. Santa Anita) is expensive.The lower areas(centers of the 2 valleys) aren't as desirable.Then you have areas (like around Dodger Stadium) where it can go from poor to wealthy by just going up a hill for a couple blocks.
