I do find it interesting that most folks on the east coast and mid-west get married at younger ages than in Southern California...
I guess the SoCal climate is such that you don't want any lunatic to take your stuff that it would be unwise to get married unless you sign a prenuptual agreement, or a covenant marriage...
Portapotties in SoCal cost half a million dollars. And Vega$ is owned and operated by LA County--in fact, it is LA County!!!
So, the commitment to marriage and family and other things are a bit skewed in SoCal...
Good thing I don't live there anymore... But where I live, they don't support marriage and families in general... Lack of commitment rules the streets out where I am now...
