Why is the White population of major California cities shrinking? I've looked at projected demographic info for many CA cities (like LA and San Diego), and it looks like by the year 2030, many of these cities will look substantially different than they do now. The Hispanic populations will increase a lot while the White population will decrease modestly. What does this mean? Percentage wise, even if the white population continues to grow, the percentage of whites in these areas will go down. Does this mean that a lot of Whites are leaving CA or does it simply mean that immigrants are coming in much faster than Whites are having children? Are a lot of White people choosing to leave CA bc they're afraid of all of the immigrants? Well, teresathegreat, thanks for accusing me of using alarmist tactics in order to get racist responses from people...I can tell, you're really sensitive to the underlying point of most questions. Not.

what are some mild-temperature cities in southern california? .. coming from a warmer, more even-tempered zone, I'm shocked by Californian L.A. weather. One day it's 60; in 3 days it shoots to 98, with unbearable sun glare. It's also very dry.

Since California is such a geographically & climactically diverse state, which southern CA area/cities are more even tempered year-round? Say.. a gentler and consistent 70-85 year-round? Yes, I looked up wikipedia. Just want to hear from real people who actually live there..

I like big cities, but don't want to live in one. 1 or 2 hours away would be good. I'm into the nightlife -- great danceclubs where you can actually feel comfortable, places with Style but not too pretentious or ritzy. I'm into shows, the likes of the Shins / Decemberists. Just drove 600+ miles to see Radiohead at Bonnaroo last week -- I'm 25, and this should give you a good sense of the things I'm into. Where do like-minded people move to in Florida & California? Where is the youth scene unmistakably alive, but somewhat of a well-kept secret? Maybe you live there, maybe you've toured there, maybe you've visited, maybe you've simply heard of a place ... Let's get the ultimate list going, cause I'm sure I'm not the only one looking to relocate--
