You got to be kidding...you can drive for 10 minutes and be in ALOT worse places. I use to sell in LA for years and that is not one of the bad places at all. In fact I was surprised how much it was cleaned up on my recent visit.

People who think L.A. is tough should go spend a few days in Detroit.

L.A. is a resort next to Detroit.

couldnt agree more, i drove by Hollywood Park one day during their off season and it was fine as far as the neighborhood. I remember thinking we had tough neighborhoods here, then i went to the midwest and visited Motown, south chicago, over the rhine, all gems of america.
