BTW I lived in L.A. and San Diego for 21 years.

Good Luck!!
That just sounds like another Texas hatin' troll.

Most of that is either exaggerated or just stereotyping.

Also, what the hell is so bad about a place being blue collar?

You can't count? "Pooholes" with amazing scenic views over Biscayne Bay.

Now, most importantly, tell us about the cookie cutter neighborhoods of Texas with the dramatic strip malls views.

Fake people as the ones who say "Howdy" on the street even if they don't know you. I don't think so.
