For life's big days

New in SoCal

Welcome. Moving here means finding everything again: a doctor, a dentist, a mechanic you trust, a bakery that gets the manakish right. These are people from our community across Los Angeles, Orange County, the Inland Empire and San Diego. A few things newcomers often wish they had known: California asks new residents to get a California driver's license within 10 days and to register their car within 20 days; an insurance agent who explains things in Arabic can save a lot of confusion; and certified translations of birth, marriage and school papers are worth getting early. Start with the first step and work down.
