DTLA has its gems but by and large it's in dire need of restoration, investment, and help. The easiest shorthand for that is that it sucks. Glad there are still people finding ways to appreciate and love it but I would not advise people who aren't prepared to visit.

Downtown LA does not suck but it is not for the weak and with my old age I’ve become weak

this is not really useful for anyone that lives here. none of these things are activities, just cool places to look at which you can only do so many times

It’s amazing for locals but not for visitors especially parking that cost more than a fancy dinner.

As a DTLA resident, it’s the only part of Los Angeles that feels like a real city. Love it.

I hear the same thing about KTown - particularly regarding parking. We do have beautiful Art Deco spaces in ktown but more than that, we have a very interconnected community. I’ve met people through Buy Nothing KTown and because of that I was able to connect to our community garden, to a crochet group, and made friends along the way. People forget that a neighborhood is not just about the spaces but about the people that fill them.
