She also participated in a few celebrity basketball games in the lead-up to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/sports\/nba\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NBA All-Star Game.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>But like many Americans, the cost of living for her in Los Angeles \u2013 where there may be more opportunity in that field \u2013 was just too high. She posted a TikTok video on Sunday going over how she was able to make it in the city with expenses as high as they are.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don\u2019t know how did it. I don\u2019t know how I lasted nine years in this city,&#8221; she said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>DeMita said she moved to Los Angeles in 2012 and decided in 2020 to move to Texas, as she realized during the coronavirus pandemic that Los Angeles just &#8220;wasn\u2019t for me anymore.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I\u2019m back here now for work and every time I\u2019m here I feel like it gets harder and harder for me to be here. It\u2019s like the minute I touch down is the minute I wanna get the f&#8212; out,&#8221; she said. &#8220;I don\u2019t know how else to describe it but\u2026 soul draining.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I feel an entire energy shift. I don\u2019t know if it\u2019s because I\u2019ve grown up a little bit. My priorities have changed. Everything is really expensive here like for no reason.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Aside from the traffic in and around the Los Angeles area, DeMita said she was paying more for rent in her one-bedroom apartment in Los Angeles than she\u2019s paying her mortgage in Texas.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/raptors-boucher-reveals-disgusting-message-salty-fan-sent-losing-parlay-bet\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>RAPTORS&#8217; CHRIS BOUCHER REVEALS THE DISGUSTING MESSAGE A SALTY FAN SENT AFTER LOSING PARLAY BET<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And then there\u2019s just the people here and I\u2019m not gonna say everyone because there are some lovely people that still live in the Los Angeles area \u2013 some of my good friends are still here. And it\u2019s also not like the homegrown LA people. I feel like those are like truly cool people.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s all the transplants that come here and a lot of people are coming here for like Hollywood and that industry and I was one of those people. So, I\u2019m being really hypocritical when I say this but like I was one of those people but it\u2019s just such a weird energy and a weird sort of entitlement that a lot of these people carry.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This city is just not reality.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>DeMita said compared to those who live in New York, their rudeness have &#8220;more of a purpose&#8221; because they\u2019re moving from place-to-place and have a &#8220;one-track mind.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But there\u2019s this weird kind of false, like fakeness that you get from Hollywood people to where if you\u2019re not, if you don\u2019t dress a certain way, if you don\u2019t have a certain car, have certain things, and you don\u2019t fit into their clique, they look down upon you. You\u2019re just living in this different reality.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>DeMita said she knows there are people who can deal with the fakeness of Hollywood but she could not. She then commended LA for its weather, shopping and food but said she would rather be living a &#8220;more peaceful life.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yeah, I just hate this place.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxbusiness.com\/lifestyle\/new-york-sydney-san-francisco-worlds-10-most-expensive-cities-live-2022\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Worldwide Cost of Living survey<\/a> by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), Los Angeles rose from ninth to fourth as the most expensive city to live in the world.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/rachel-demita-sports-personality-ex-college-basketball-player-rails-against-soul-draining-los-angeles\">Source &#8211;
