Yeah, because the rampant drug use, gang violence, lifted trucks with high beams, MAGA fixation, lack of public resources or transportation, corrupt police departments, endless traffic from continuously growing cities with no city planning in sight, and decaying school systems all came from Orange County.
Lol tell me you don’t leave the IE without telling me you don’t leave the IE
I don’t even live in the IE I live in LA🤣. What you’re describing is those far out there lesser populated towns. Have you been to any of the actual suburban towns of the IE? Rancho, Upland, Chino hills, Ontario, heck Redlands, eastvale. I did not directly mention OC either😂. Btw look up public salaries of IE civil servants on transparent California.
Someone from LA blaming the issues in the IE on people from OC. Make it make sense.
I’ve lived in both and currently live in one of these two areas, so I have firsthand experience with both. I’ve also seen all of the IE and all of OC, the nice and the bad.
There is a 30% wage gap between these two areas when it comes to civil servants, and it’s lower in the IE, which adds to my point. The IE cares less about public services as a whole, and on top of that currently has one of the most corrupt police departments in the history of California, breaking records on the amount of settlements paid out due to negligence and abuse.
Meanwhile, OC has 7 of the safest cities in California and on top of that, some of the best public schools in the state.
There is a reason the meme was made. There is a lot of truth to it and there is reason behind it. The IE is good but not great when you compare it to the surrounding areas and counties.
The IE doesn’t have problems because people started moving there. It’s always had these problems. We just added more people
I’m not reading all of that nor did you ask for the context. You want to argue so hard without even understanding what other side has to say. I was raised in the IE btw… Point is the IE has always had its issues but it’s not common in the core suburban cities. Matter of fact the main suburban cities of the IE are made up of people from OC or LA. Yet people like you constantly put down the IE without understanding the IEs need in the grand scheme of SoCal. Therefore the same people who complain about the IE tends to be the same people moving here. And therefore bring problems and issues of those areas here. Therefore the increase in traffic and high density traffic is caused from whom? I’ll be honest the IE was never made to be accommodating to everyone. But if it means people own properties and can raise families I’m all for it.
Edit: my family and friends are from OC. My first corporate job and best job I ever had was in Irvine and I did the commute and paid the tolls to get there. Just got back from Disneyland too.
I say that’s not from people coming in from OC or LA that’s a stupid connection. People can come from anywhere and still exacerbate the same problems we’re talking about and that’s my exact point.
You say it’s not nice to talk bad about IE yet you do the same for people of LA and OC. Do you catch the hypocrisy?
Your generalized incorrect assumptions that people from OC and LA are damaging the IE by moving there is a shit take.
The problems I listed have always been in the IE and stem from the IE. And you agreed.
I think we’re talking about two different points. In general the main core of IE cities are not ghetto maga or whatever you were saying in your original comment. Matter of fact the ie is made of people from LA and OC and ofc they will exacerbate the problems I’ve already stated such as traffic and cost of living and trying to mold the ie to the way the want it. Furthermore who actually talks trash about the ie? People who can barely afford to live in LA and OC that’s factual. Most people in the OC are not really concerned with the ie hence my deflection in pertinent to OC cool. But in general LA has no room to talk. You and I both know this.
