Fires, riots and serial killers. Sounds exactly like the Upper West Side to me. LOL. Ben Stiller says he regrets raising his kids in LA. There just isn't enough... excitement on the West Coast. 

"Raising them here is different because I was raised in New York City. It’s totally different. I grew up in the Upper West Side of Manhattan in the 70s. "There were… fires and riots and serial killers. It was great. My kids, it’s L.A., it’s sunny and nice. They don’t have any excitement."
