I would advise against living in areas like the san fernando valley, north-ridge (unless you go to school there), k-town (apt buildings reek of garlic), & the san gabriel valley (unless chinese food is your passion). those are some of the more undesirable areas imo.

in all honestly though, west covina is like 30-45 mins drive to most parts of LA. I live in West LA, and it takes me about 30-45 mins to get most places anyhow traffic willing. it's not worth the hassle to relocate for the sake of proximity.

I will say that the key to happiness in la is to live close to where you work.
it's not a bad city per say, but the commute & traffic can make it hell.
Did you miss the part where he has no appreciable education and is going to be flipping burgers? It's nice to go out and see the world but not when a few grand of debt is knocking at your door!

BTW, op, how long have you been dating your girlfriend?
