depends on where in LA you want to live and what you like to do.
"LA" is a HUGE area that covers everything from the coast to desert like inland areas. If you want to live by the water, expect to pay 2 to 3x more than if you live in the valley.
I lived there from 2004-2008 and when I left i was paying $2800/mo in rent to live near the water in Marina del Rey. It was a decent 2bd/2ba place, but thats the price to be near the beach.
My friend is getting a 4bd house in the valley for $2100 a month... so just depends on where and what you want, but all around LA is probably more expensive than other places outside of Miami, NYC and Boston
