We're actually still based in San Francisco and working on the relocation right now. We're deciding between Culver City and Downtown.

Downtown could definitely use more tech-centric companies. Good luck.

Once you have decided, definitely list the exact neighborhood with every job ad. Los Angeles is a big place and most do not want to travel to a far off area.

Will do. If it would be up to me, we would move down to El Segundo or Redondo Beach. But my colleagues are not that excited about those areas. Will see if I can sell them on downtown

The far majority of the tech companies are on the west side. Most north of LAX, but there are a few in El Segundo, which you probably know already. Culver City is a good halfway point, especially if you want to avoid the expensive westside and the bad commute if you live much eastward. The Expo Line serves Culver City.

I personally avoid the westside, so I can see why some of your colleagues would too.

Appreciate the recommendation. I personally don't care much to be around other startups (although in SF we sit around the corner from Stripe, Soundcloud, ...).

I want decent space with good food options around and for my people to afford decent housing close to the office. It seems to be more doable in LA than in SF.

One plus of being downtown is that people can take the metro to work.

That's a great point I heard a lot recently
