If you spend some time finding an apartment you can get one for a good price, don't go online, get a broker or a friend to help

a roommate is also great
I live with one other person in a 2 bedroom and I pay $1800 and he $1500, which is a pretty reasonable expense if you make at least 50k

well I live in NYC, its generally accepted that a more significant portion of your income goes towards housing, especially because I don't need a car, have no house/lawn maintenance, etc.

Dude, LA has amazing beaches, exhilarating hiking, is only a short-ish drive from gorgeous forests, an afternoon's drive from skiing, and has more sunny days than Miami. Seattle is the suicide capitol of America because it rains all the time and doesn't get enough sunshine.
