CA is soooo expensive. It's true. The housing prices are hyperinflated....as for job opportunities....it's hard to tell without knowing what your background is. CA is also overpopulated.\nI'm a former CA girl.

California, like all of the United States, has never had any official language.\n\nMost people assume that the US recognises English as it's official language, but in actuality, there has never been ANY language or languages that have been officially recognised as such.

One's the capital of the United States of America, is not a state, and is on the east coast (Washington, D.C.), while the other is a state, has a capital of Olympia, and is on the west coast of the United States (Washington state).

Los Angeles, California. I'm conflicted about what's best about it. It's either (a) the weather or (b) the fact that it's very, very blue state.

California is the best and one of the most expensive places to live.  Who cares about money when all of the beautiful people live here.

Usually, it's the state capital that's first and the big city comes later.  Government itself is an industry, plus various organizations and companies may want to put in a branch merely to deal with the government.  This leads to many large cities for state governments.\nState capitals were chosen for historical reasons (as is the case with most of the original thirteen colonies), or to be more centrally located (such as Jefferson City, Missouri -- it was deliberately chosen before a city actually existed!)  In fact, Alaska, at one point, considered moving the state capital from Juneau to Anchorage for this very reason.  It also depends on what transportation connections were available at the time.  Most are not small towns, though.  Jefferson City (for example), while not one of the largest cities in Missouri, is not exactly a town (population is about 40,000).  \nPierre, South Dakota, is probably the second smallest at about 15,000 and closer to being a town; Montpelier, Vermont holds the smallest size at about 8000.  In case you're curious, the largest state capital is Phoenix, Arizona (about 1,000,000).

Encino has a higher quality of general population. \nI don't care how much they cleaned up old town in Pasadena, you still have to watch your a@@ there to keep from getting mugged!
