[edit] More on the logistics of freeway construction

The Taylor article in Hanson/Giuliano has an excellent summary of how the SoCal freeway system went from narrow, low-speed roads like the Arroyo Seco Parkway and the original San Bernardino Freeway to swollen monstrosities like the Santa Monica and San Diego Freeways. I'll add that to the Planning/Construction section at some point, but not anytime soon. --Slightlyslack 22:17, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Disputed

Since when is most of the growth in socal from undocumented migrants? California, and Socal especially, has always been a popular destination for people looking to escape East Coast weather, and it still is.
