Steven Taylor on LA, One of the Greatest Places to Live — Steven Taylor, Taylor Equities
Steven Taylor is in love with Los Angeles. The city is simply amazing. Nicknamed ‘the City of Angels’, Los Angeles is a sprawling metropolis that is full of amazing people, historical and beautiful landmarks, and beaches that truly belong in the postcards.
Of course, one might think that this is just Steven Taylor thinking out loud. However, an article that was published this year suggests that it’s not just Steven Taylor who thinks that Los Angeles is one of the greatest places to live in the United States. In fact, nearly one-third of Americans are now seriously considering where they live (thanks to the pandemic) and that the majority of them believe that Los Angeles is a better place to live.
The report came out in June of 2021. Los Angeles came in at 126th place, while the consistent number one choice is Boulder, Colorado. The rating system depends on a number of factors, but the biggest factor would have to be the availability of jobs despite the pandemic. Los Angeles gained a point of 6.1 out of a 10 point scale, with desirability coming in with a perfect 10 point score. Again, Steve Taylor isn’t surprised why.
The city is a bustling metropolis filled with many skyscrapers. The city is also a known hub for many IT centers, perhaps the only industry that is not entirely affected much by the pandemic, thanks to the availability of remote work-from-home options for workers.
In an entirely different survey done just a few days ago, Los Angeles came in at 7th place for the Most Fun Place to live in the United States. Based on data compiled by the United States Department of Transportation’s Bureau of Transportation Statistics, the Trust for Public Land, and Tripadvisor.com, it was proven that Los Angeles is amongst the cities with easy access to parks, venues that encourage outdoor activities, more restaurants, theaters, and places where there’s live music for entertainment. Also included are places where people can shop.
Steven Taylor believes that among all cities in the United States, Los Angeles takes really great pride in its oneness with nature. One can clearly see it with our parks, our beaches, the nature trails, mountains, and others. Also, the city takes really great care of these natural gems so that future generations can continue to enjoy these parks and beaches. These, together with the malls and shopping centers of Los Angeles, are what contributed to the city getting the top 7th spot compared to other big cities, such as New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, and Las Vegas.
Apart from the natural and man-made attractions, Los Angeles is also famous for being a city that supports and is home to many sports teams. The city is home to the LA Lakers and Clippers for basketball. It is also home to many other popular sports teams, such as the Dodgers, Angels, Rams, Chargers, Kings, Ducks, Galaxy, and the LA Football Club. If a city supports this many teams, then one can be sure that it’s a city where its citizens are always looking for something fun to do every day!
