I have lived in both San Francisco and LA, and personally i prefer LA. SF gay scene is over rated. West Hollywood is the most obvious LA gay area, Hillcrest in San Diego is great. It is very expensive in Weho you can live outlying areas, Los Feliz, Silverlake etc.

San Diego a much better bet - nicer place than LA, more manageable and historically a much stronger soccer scene. Try Pacific Beach as a pleasant area to stay. Hillcrest as previous answer is also nice.

Go for San Diego-it is a beautiful area.
For peace and tranquility try Bass Lake

santa monica, west hollywood, and west long beach have really active gay scenes and are relatively nice places to live in l.a. county. san diego, which i saw mentioned here a few times, is a lot more conservative than los angeles... so be aware of having to deal with that if you choose to go there

Well i live in Huntington Beach, Ca and its pretty crowed down here and expensive but it's a great place to live. There are also a lot of places down here to at work too.

Santa Monica. There's a large group of Brits there already.

You could also try Hillcrest area in San Diego. Our gay community. It's beautiful down here also.
good luck

ive spent time in both LA and san francisco,i dont know about the gay scene but frisco might be a better option , it didnt seem as violent as LA when i was there but that was over 10 years ago

maybe getting out of LA and heading to San Fransico might be a better idea

San francisco is one of the worlds best gay cities apparently.
