Seeing as how you mentioned Phoenix, I can tell you we are catching up fast with LA on all of your points above. The smog here is terrible lately, traffic is at a standstill after 3 PM on the 101 highway and there is crime on the local news every night. Las Vegas and the Phoenix area are two of the fastest growing cities in the country. Its nuts.
Yeah, I moved from there back in '97. Don't really miss it, except in the winter. Unfortunately, that's also when the smog is the worst! My sister and family are in Chandler, still have friends in Tempe, but not really all that anxious to visit for longer than a day or so.
I do have to admit I miss Somburros restaurant on Mill and Baseline, used to eat there a few nights a week. Great messican take out!
And that's why I live in Tucson!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
