La is a wasted opportunity Discussion
Imagine if Los Angeles was built like Barcelona. Dense 15 million people metropolis with great public transportation and walkability.
They wasted this perfect climate and perfect place for city by building a endless suburban sprawl.

It's bakingly hot and sunny during the summer, so I wouldn't say it's great year round, but all the asphalt soaking up heat probably contributes to it.
