I am driving through Berverly Hills. I could not believe my eyes how many stores are out of business on Rodeo Dr., Wilshire Boulevard and all around the city of Beverly Hills. It is super depressing even restaurants had to close down after 45 years it feels like Berverly Hills is becoming a ghost town certain streets are totally abandoned

No, the Government doesn't control a Free Market Capitalist economy. after 9/11 the economy took a nose dive and it took a while to recover. Then we had Covid Pandemic, which is another major problem, but instead of just focusing on one Country, Covid hit EVERY Country. In LA, they had the SAG boycotts so one of their biggest industries effectively shut down for many months and less people wasting money on expensive shit. You want inflation? MANY Countries have excessively high inflation. There's other Countries that are going through the same thing we are. China has their own collapse in the real estate market. I know the Republicans always want to blame the Democrats, but think of this. Which States are the poorest States? Republican run States. No one wants to live on those States because they have no money and are nothing but Ghost States sucking the money from the wealthy States.

It's a combination of things, I don't think it's just one thing.. The pandemic certainly didn't help. The BLM riots didn't help. The voters passing a bill making stealing under $1000 less of a crime. The fact that it's harder to attract new people to work for the police department. Property values went up too fast and the economy couldn't keep up. Less demand for super expensive crap. It's anyone's guess.

No people, empty tables etc. I will not travel again there and I am glad that I experienced the best time of California in the 80s for the first time as a little boy and later as an exchange student in the 90s.

BH has been dying for awhile. Movie stars don’t all live there anymore, the Persian community took over since the 80s then they were replaced by Arabs. Slowly the great luxury shops closed. The black lives matter riots were a turning point. The riots showed Los Angeles residents on local TV that the police just stood by while rioters smashed and looted parts of LA like Melrose Ave with impunity. It was a shock to the system. So-called restorative justice, which really means no more law and order, began, vagrants all over the country learned you could camp out anywhere in LA and not be bothered, so that population exploded. Then the Covid lockdowns put the nails in the coffin, and growing lawlessness drove out many residents and businesses. We will not see the vibrant Los Angeles and grand Beverly Hills again in our lifetimes. RIP LA. RIP Beverly Hills. So, so sad.

Yes! We went to NYC and expected what we saw in LA. You know movies and tv and all. We walked in Times Square at 2am with our kids and yes we kept them close but we actually had no fear. Pepper spray stayed in our pockets. Flew across to LA and we kept the pepper spray in one hand, an arm wrapped around the kids 100% of the time and quickly procured a safety device as we were scared for our lives. We were at the great Dolby theater and the famous Chinese Theater where it’s all glitz and glamour and saw the most terrifying people either shooting drugs or screaming at their own reflection in windows and hassling everyone for everything. Hollywood itself was how I imagine hell to look. Venice Beach we actually refer to as murder beach now. The tour bus drove away and we immediately regretted all our life choices up to that point. Holy hell how do they portray it so clean and wholesome when it’s vile, covered with needles and all the buildings were filled with stench and people doing drugs and demanding money.

I'm sorry to see this. I lived in Beverly Hills for five years within walking distance of Rodeo Drive. I knew it was only a matter of time until the rot unleashed on LA would reach Beverly Hills, but actually seeing that come true is depressing. Most people think Beverly Hills is all glitzy shops and mansions perched on high hills. It's not. I lived in "the flats" with working people who live there for a clean, well-run, low-crime city. (58% of Beverly Hills residents are renters, as I was). If even Beverly Hills has gone this far, then California is past the point of no return.

That's only partially correct. The law says shoplifting under 950 is a misdemeanor, not a felony. They can absolutely be cited and prosecuted and given jail or even prison time. And it was a ballot proposition voted on by the people. It was not written and passed by the legislature and signed by the governor. Blame it on the people. These are the same voters who just approved a bond measure for 6-8 billion in bonds to fund mental health and housing for the homeless when the budget for next year is already short 68 billion.

The martyr who claims he is for the people. Lets increase the mim wage so corp businesses will increase price and the mom and pop shop will collapse. AI is what he created and it is on purpose. Especially a place like CA that has many migrant workers in places that are corp run like fast food restaurants. Already there is massive layoff in these places. Gavin is as disgusting as these places that have more money than god but their greed is more important. At the end of the day, corp policy for a company to make more money is a decision any company owner has a right to do but when a head of state makes a policy to destroy the lower or middle class worker that is what we call the fake liberal

The USA is a non market ecomomy intervening on behalf of a few big corporations and punishing small businesses or even tax payers if they can't pay their taxes or mortgage to end up on the street. And there goes Fed.Reserve boss Yellen to teach China that they are doing wrong by producing too much cheap goods. What the heck this world has turned into. China has a market economy and the USA has converted to Socialism.

Very sad. As a former resident of BH before and during COVID, I watched the state of decline. I remember trying to drive home before getting stopped by an angry mob of people that was slowly descending into the town. Me and a few other alarmed motorists turned our cars around and hurried out. That was the first day of the infamous riots. We realized the police were powerless. I left BH and moved further west. Turns out the homeless problem is far worse the further west you go. But it's really the burglaries and robberies that are the scariest. My home was broken into twice, the second time a gunpoint. Using a firearm in the commission of a felony used to be a mandatory 'enhancement' charge but that's no longer the case. The police told me that simply breaking into my home and pointing a gun at me wasn't enough to escalate to a more serious response. Crazy thing is, we're not allowed to carry firearms in public or even in your vehicle to protect yourself. So robbers are pointing guns at shoppers in broad daylight at the local mall, or parking lot, or follow you home, and as you pull into your garage, point a gun at your face and take everything you own. Sounds like a movie, but it has been happening. So, people are rethinking going out in their fancy cars, wearing their fancy watches and jewelry and "being seen." Since BH is a town for exactly that - they are suffering quite a bit. L.A. is wild. I grew up in San Diego. We used to leave our front door unlocked! Never heard about any break ins. But that's only part of the story. As a business owner in L.A. we are seeing a permanent transition to remote work. People aren't commuting to offices anymore, and clients aren't requiring in-person meetings, so companies are ditching their expensive leases. It's amazing how much white collar work can be done using Zoom. BH has a huge supply of offices - above all of those retail stores there are countless offices. Without people coming to the offices, there are fewer patrons running errands locally or dining in BH. Ask any retail owner and they will measure their revenue in terms of "pre-pandemic" and post-pandemic. After the pandemic, business never really picked up - so even the big staples that were there for 20+ years didn't have enough revenue to sustain themselves.

I lived in L.A. for 44 years on and off, including in Beverly Hills for 10 of them. I hate to say it, but almost the second after Beverly Hills got ransacked in the 2020 riots, and then the same crowd inexplicably started piling into Beverly Hills every weekend and turning it into "the Shaw" of the 80's and 90's, Beverly Hills lost its mystique. Four years later, and videos like this are possible? It's not coincidence. It's that, and the L.A./CA political idiocy that has done this. Their own policies backfiring on CA businesses.
