...are generally safe but you do have to know the particular neighborhood you're going to.  Some parts can be a little sketchy.

You shouldn't be concerned about getting mugged.  That only happens when pimps are involved and it is very rare for SoCal providers to have pimps in incall locations.

You have to be careful when they come to your hotel room.  You could be subject to 'cash and dash' or their 'driver' strong arming you.

You should also post your inquiry on the Orange County board.

Too bad - you missed She-Ra.  She just retired a couple of months ago.  She turned to providing when Masters of the Universe was cancelled.

Rent a car with a gps.

Why would you want to visit mps in Long Beach? Unless you have really good intel on one, don't. LB is also known to have very active LE in terms of the hobby. I wouldn't worry about getting mugged. LA is actually quite safe. I wouldn't stroll through certain areas late at night with a buzz on though.

Why would you want to visit a ladies incall  who doesn't have solid reviews on this board? There are 100's and 100's of ladies who do have solid reviews on the OC and LA boards, and you have nothing to worry about if you book with one of those ladies. I'd avoid ladies who advertise on BP, who do not have solid reviews on this board. That's where you could have problems.  

Bring sunscreen and have a great time in sunny So Cal!

he first thing you have to realize is that it's about travel time not distance.  You could motor across seveal of the east coast pigmy states in the time it takes to get from Santa Monica to Westwood.  

TER is a great place to find reviewed ladies.  But you need to be location specific.  Also if your LA accommodations are not too sensitive, some of the better values are in outcall.  

I have been a TER paid member (I don't post a lot of reviews, just write a check for some personal reasons). Beyond TER's well reviewed professionals, there are some awesome providers running under the radar on SA.  If you have time to cultivate them with an ad and frank note that you ae just visiting you may be surprised at the result.  

Of course the risks are higher than using a well reviewed provider. However, there's a certain satisfaction from blazing a new trail. Always, always  think with the big head. Google search numbers etc.

As others noted I would stay out of the MPs in many areas.  

You absolutely need a GPS in LA .  Again, without local kowledge I would stay with reviewed providers , either in safe areas or outcall. Don't be afraid to ask back here about area.   Both Long Beach and the LAX area have some pretty scary neighborhoods

Perhaps we could meet and enjoy ourselves together
