New Yorkers might get the least out of working hard for the money but we're not doing much better. Salary.com says that Los Angeles is the 8th worst city for trying to keep your money in your bank account. The basic idea is that while our salaries are generally higher than most other cities in the nation our cost of living outpaces that by far. So, the question is, when we could easily pack up and move 5 hours away and get a job at a casino/hotel in Vegas and probably buy a house quickly, why do we stay?
If the money ain't right, what's keeping all 8 million of us in LA?

clearly, your love of natural disasters.
Moving to Los Angeles, for me, engendered the same happiness as receiving a large signing bonus for taking a new job.
It's not for everybody; people who are the happiest in L.A. are the one's here for work in the film/tv or related industries or the ones who love the standard-setting variety of indoor and outdoor recreational activities.
If your not specifically here for the aforementioned reasons, but you like the idea of warm weather and So Cal beaches, I'd say move to San Diego or Orange County.
Jeez though, Vegas!? It's like some obese, cut-rate Palm Springs governed by Six Flags.
Well I don't know about you, but I can't afford the gas to leave town.
I'm chained here by my job (yup, you guessed it - film industry), but I like LA..
If you have a sense of humor, it's a fun town!
