People are are largely right. It's between Miami and LA.
Both cities have fake people, so your screwed in that regard either way.
Miami easily has better beaches, but LA easily has the better EDM scene.
Miami does have a number of quality clubs. The downside to Miami is that it's largely house and there's not much focus on trance. Yeah, the big trance DJs make their rounds from time to time, but outside of WMC it's not too often compared to other major cities.
But Miami has beautiful beaches with nice warm water.
LA (SoCal) has a scene that destroys Miami. It has a plethora of trance and house events on a weekly basis and there are numerous massives (GV, GM, Monster Massive, Together As One, Electric Daisy Carnival, Noctural Wonderland, etc -- some 21+, some all ages) throughout the year that also brings in top talent. The vibe in LA clubs generally suck, though, at least compared to SF (which is always cold, and rainy, and has freezing beaches so that's out of the picture).  SoCal beaches are OK, but the water is definitely dirtier and much colder than the Florida beaches.
To me, the scene is more important so I'd choose LA, just because you get so much more variety. The weather in LA is generally better too because you aren't stuck with 90% humidity during the summer. Having grown up in Florida, I can tell you the heat there SUCKS.
And, and despite what someone else said, LA's traffic is THAT BAD. I dunno if London in rush hour bad (remember one time I was in London and the headlines were about the average speed during rush hour in London being 3mph - that's right, 3MPH! - and were considering charging tolls to drive within London and the toll boundries/costs would be zoned just as if you were riding on The Tube. Anyhow, LA traffic SUX.
