It’s a HORRIBLE idea! My brother lives in LA county and since the legalization of marijuana and all the pot shops showed up everywhere, the quality of life for those who don’t smoke or use drugs has suffered tremendously. You can’t even walk down the street without being accosted by Drug  addicts who loiter and it makes an unsafe environment for children. It used to be a fun oddity to visit LA, now its a decrepit pit hole.

As someone who lives in southern California, I have never seen anything like you have described. Please tell me the neighborhood so I can avoid it.
