I rather doubt his wife will support a move anyway. But she is very unlikely to leave Belmont Shores for Downtown LA. They are only a few blocks from the ocean so I believe they will end up getting a Duplex so he can move our sister in the second unit. I know you aren’t talking about Central East Downtown, the old section of skid row. That has mostly been replaced with a new business district. The rest of downtown is getting better during the day. But people living in Redondo, Long Beach Santa Monica or Brentwood are already living in a nicer area than downtown. My nephew might be willing to give it a shot and would be the best candidate to go car free with a better transportation system.
That being said he will be fighting two strong willed women and his wife has several sisters and friends she hangs out with. She drives a lot.
