Your friends just sound like bitter assholes tbh. LA is a sprawling metropolis that makes absolutely no sense to compare to San Francisco. LA as a whole isn't 'like' anything because it has such wildly diverse areas. Do you think Santa Monica has a similar feel to Compton or Hollywood?

See, we actually do agree here, given that the SF Bay Area has lost its diversity and become so monolithic that you can no longer draw a comparison anymore.
