There was more housing available, it was more affordable; people spent proportionately less on housing so they could work minimum wage jobs and keep a roof over their heads. Over that, there was more general prosperity (larger middle class), taxes were a lot higher on high income earners and corporations (who steadily modified laws to keep more to themselves).

what a great town. I miss the old LA! 5:49 the old Theme Restaurant at LAX!
Cool to see "Live And let Die" playing at Grauman's. I'd take L.A. 1973 over 2023 anyday.
Ya got that right, 2024 too. Even with the smog, WAY better
you must be an old timer.
@@bconni2 No. I'm a realist.
The only thing better today is there is not as much smog. Other than that, LA has turned to shite!
Me too!
Flashback in the 70's
Good times
You're not wrong!!!
I miss the old Real LA
The smog or the litter? I grew up there. 61 to 79. It was a sewer. But the surrounding areas can't be beat.
Damn! I'm going to use this as a backing track to jam to.... funky baby!
I like the white on black speed limit sign.
Hollywood Blvd looks so family friendly and genteel. Gee, I wonder what happened? /sarc
4:50 - ALIENS!!
👍👍😘😘!!
people were a lot cooler in the 70 s
And a lot lighter... in several ways
@@atatterson6992there's a lot of over weight people now days then back when.
@@courtneymoyer1637 If you mean that there are WAY more fatties now than there were back then you are 100% correct
Musta been staying at the airport Sheraton :-)
LA before it was destroyed by diversity.
Where are the homeless people?
None
No abia
It was still a red state :-)
