"for your information since I know it was you who left me that message about LA having a CSA of 33000 sq miles, it only uses 7,000 of that, much less than sprawlville Chicago and packing double the population"

Looks like the OP is awake. I just got that rep message. How interesting because I cant even write messages in the reps I leave yet. Still a junior member sadly....

Do people in NYC and LA have a right to say these demeaning things to people in Chicago/SF/DC for being from a smaller city? Is the big city mindset that different in LA than Chicago? Does anyone else feel that Chicago is a "big small town" compared to LA? Or is this guy just delusional when he says that?

I have been to LA and its a wonderful city and I never said it was dead but was simply pointing out the idiocy with saying Chicago is slightly more vibrant. It's not slightly more vibrant for pedestrians its a good amount more vibrant and so is Boston. Cant comment on Philly and DC because I haven't ever been but many say if Boston counts then they do as well. LA is not a dead city, the shops and restaurants are just as packed as any others but the pedestrian life is one shortchange.

Take it for what you wish but I am not making attacks on LA nor am I flat out bashing it as you seem to suggest I am. The OP and I have nothing in common and I consider that a very good thing. I like all different types of cities and all different types of people from different walks of life.
Wasn't really referring to you in particular. Just in general on this board. Your posts seem pretty reasonable.

Though I disagree Boston is a great deal more vibrant for pedestrians (IMO it has a few smaller areas that are unmatched in LA, but not as many walkable places throughout the metro like LA) but that is for another thread.

I agree sir, Boston does have a few areas that LA doesn't but outside of those areas LA likely pulls ahead.

CaliSa, yup crawling alright. Wouldn't call it nothin' else
