Should I Move to California?
Hello! Looking for personal experience plus advice from ppl who live in California currently or have lived there before!! I am a 23 year old woman with a soon to be bachelors degree in social work. I have lived years 2-18 in a Chicago suburb and years 18-23 in Colorado. While I have enjoyed both I have ALWAYS wanted to move to California. I love the beach, authentic food and I miss the culture of a big city. However my parents lived in Azusa, CA for years and didn’t like it. Yes I am aware Azusa is a more sketchy area. However my dad has always said California is a great place to start your life as a young person. I fell in love with San Diego when I last went in 2024, but I have not seen really any other parts of the state to have a good enough judgement of what part of the giant state would work for me. I am not interested in LA but every other area seems like an option. I am looking for legal/clinical social work/ other humanitarian roles for employment once I have earned my degree. Does anyone have any advice? Warnings? Pros and Cons?
