California's Similarities, Mainly Los Angeles

California is known for it's sunny beaches, beautiful landscapes, and movie stars, but the state doesn't entirely share a lot in common with New York. If we're talking about New York City, then the city of Los Angeles is more in common. As the nation's second largest city, Los Angeles thrives with its diverse population and structural development, even if all of it feels a little far between. Location-wise, this city should not even make much logical sense, considering that heavy resources are virtually nonexistent, but the implementation of heavy government spending on roadways and irrigation, as well as local climate, has helped Los Angeles grow into a very populous destination to live in.


Los Angeles isn't exactly the center of the city, though. Many industries and agricultural sites exist well-knit within the valley, making it hard to define a real center of the Metropolis. New York City commits to a big part of the region's manufacturing and trade industry, whereas Los Angeles is more loosely assigned to what it deals with. Even with that knowledge, though, Los Angeles grows with a climate as moderately viable as Rome in Italy, and allows for society to thrive amidst a much more spread out area.
