“White Flight Is Real”: Publicist Says Middle Class & Wealthy are Fleeing Los Angeles






“When I first arrived in LA 40 years ago, the town smelled of orange blossoms. Now the streets stink of urine.”

Veteran publicist Ed Lozzi says that the middle class and wealthy are fleeing Los Angeles, noting that whereas the town once smelled of orange blossoms, it now smells of urine.

Lozzi noted that coronavirus was just the final blow to a city already reeling as a result of its progressive attitude towards homelessness.

“Hollywood has always been the wokest of the woke, so politicians have done nothing to stop people sleeping on the streets. It’s not illegal and the weather’s nice, so they keep coming,” he said, adding that, “there is insufficient housing, inadequate mental health care. Add in Covid and it’s a perfect storm.”

The economic impact of the COVID lockdown and the problems caused by open air homeless camps has made the downtown area unlivable for families, with many of them now desperately trying to sell their properties and escape to suburbia.

Rich celebrities like Joe Rogan and Elon Musk have also permanently left the city in recent times. Producer Dana Brunetti, a business partner of Kevin Spacey, also recently acquired Italian citizenship to escape the prospect of more widespread riots.

The impact of allowing some 66,000 homeless people to roam the streets has also literally changed the smell of the city, according to Lozzi.



“When I first arrived in LA 40 years ago, the town smelled of orange blossoms. Now the streets stink of urine,” he said.

“There is a beautiful park in Westwood but you can’t go there because there are people slumped on the ground and you step on a carpet of needles.”

Danny O’Brien, the owner of Watford Moving & Storage, confirms Lozzi’s assertion about the mass exodus, arguing that “liberal politics has destroyed this city.”

“The homeless encampments are legal and there’s nothing the police can do. White, affluent middle-class folk are getting out. People don’t feel safe any more,” said O’Brien.

He notes that August has already set records for people moving out.

“People are getting out in droves. Last week I moved a prominent person in the music industry from a $6.5 million mansion above Sunset Boulevard to...

I've been hearing that for years, about L.A., San Fran, NYC, Chicago. I'm not really seeing the outflow being that much higher than the inflow... people buying in at lower costs, from in and out of the state, basically replacement doesn't seem to be much off from the exit population. Not in any major way. Further, those who are leaving are recreating the mess they left, in Texas, Utah, even Idaho, already having ruined Colorado and Nevada and a few others.

It really doesn't seem to matter. The dominoes are falling, they are lined up to fall all the way down the line. There isn't a way to stop it or change it. When the government chosen elite burn out of fiat, perhaps then? We will see. I am just glad, so far, Americans are armed. Enough that the government and their chosen elite can't just command and murder their way to maintaining power.
