The manger babies don't have feelings. You said it yourself.

Los Angeles will have to tear down a lot of its quaint little village styled apartments, and likely most of its older apts and single family residences, in favor of planned community mixed-use developments and hipsters townhouses. The housing market is so loving bonkers now there's no reason to not have a 30 unit townhome development where 3 or 4 1940s single family homes stand.

I don't see the Purple Line (aka subway to the sea) being very useful to anyone aside from college students and high schoolers that want to hit the 3rd Street Promenade. Traffic's gonna suck bigger donkey balls once all us Poors get shuffled off to Arleta or West Covina.

And ironically enough, Hawthorne/Compton will be next on the gentrification hitlist once that Rams stadium matures. That'll probably be the last bastion of non-rich single family homes in the metro area.

Although if LA gets the Olympics in 2024, all this will happen even faster. Especially since unlike 1984, LA won't have the IOC by the balls this time around.

 Santa Ana will probably continue to gentrify and try and turn itself into a big boy city. Low income people will continue to be pushed out in favor of expensive condos and high rise apartments.

Anaheim will still let Disneyland and the hotel chains do whatever they want.

Irvine will continue to try and turn itself into a mini Silicon Valley to attract more tech companies. Housing will continue to densify as more and more huge condo / apartment blocks are built instead of single family houses.
