<p>"weather, "style" of road designs"</p>

<p>There's not much to complain about in regards to the weather. Albeit this spring so far has been saturated with rain, but the weather is normally excellent (LA does have more "sunny" days). I'm not sure what road designs they're talking about--LA has the most inefficient freeway system I have ever seen.</p>

<p>In any case, just go with the school where you feel most comfortable. I have to make the same choice, between UCLA and Cal. At first, I was set on UCLA, until I visited and realized I felt out of place in socal. Good luck with your decision.</p>

<p>Keep in mind that LA's freeways are actually incredibly efficient, just overused. As an article in the Economist pointed out, there probably isn't a freeway system in the world that could handle LA.</p>

<p>You're right, inefficient was the wrong word to use. I'm used to Bay Area traffic, which can get pretty bad, but going on LA freeways at rush hour is the worst.</p>
