I got my permit right when I moved down here! The day I showed up I went to the dmv and got an ID (kept my out of state drivers license so now I'm medical in multiple states) for about 25 dollars. they gave me a receipt I took that receipt to med rx/c and said I just moved down here here is my receipt from the DMV. I left the doctors with a rec ($150 at the time, only $55 now) went straight to a club with and got what I needed (but really didn't like the $20 a gram they were charging for anything that looked half decent)! You can do it all in one day but it is going to take a lot of time and money when you should be able to find it on the street! Street weed is usually cheaper and most of the time just as good! A lot of people that sell to the clubs also sell to the streets! Stick to the streets it's going to be safer for you and the clubs!
the main search doesn't work but use the city search on the left side of the screen. where it says a stoners guide to and has a picture of a globe.

Smoking tolerance level [1= very illegal 5=virtually legal]: 4.5
Legislation: Proposition 215 in California since July 19, 2002, also known as the Compassionate Use Act of 1995, legalizes medical Marijuana use: "The possession and cultivation of marijuana is no more criminal -- so long as (the law's) conditions are satisfied -- than the possession and acquisition of any prescription drug with a physician's prescription." CA Chief Justice Ronald George.
Possession of 28.5 grams or less of marijuana is not an arrestable offense. As long as the offender can provide sufficient identification and promises to appear in court, the officer will not arrest the offender. Upon conviction of the misdemeanor charge the offender is subject to a fine of $100. Possession of greater than 28.5 grams is punishable by up to six months in jail and a fine of up to $500.
The State of California has made it legal to carry up to an ounce on your person IF you have received a "prescription" from a doctor. This "prescription" allows you to get a "Cannabis card" which you can use to purchase marijuana from "Cannabis Clubs" (a physical establishment you can buy marijuana from with a card). Also, possesion of marijuana in the State of California is only a misdemeanor offense and is removed from your record after only 2 years (misdemeanor only applies if there is no intent to sell).
Law Enforcement: Can be quick to write up posession citations. Do not walk down the street w/ a joint or a bowl, and make sure you keep it out of site. LAPD usually doesn't bother you if you are minding your own business.
If you have small quantities the police are not going to waste their time on you. They will simply confiscate the weed from you and usually do not even write you a ticket (although they can write you a $100 dollar ticket if they want). Do not carry large amounts of individually packaged weed, scales, or big amounts of cash with weed as these can get you busted for dealing. I've had a cop pull up beside me and my friends as we sat in the car on 4/20 in the early morning in a car filled with munchies all lookin stoned as hell and the cop did not even want to bother (although we werent driving which would have been different).
Where to Buy Marijuana in Los Angeles: Weed may be available on Sunset Blvd. in Hollywood, but short of downtonw Los Angeles Sunset Blvd. turns into Cesear Chavez and there is no weed there. Weed can be found downtown, but it is sketchy from a personal safety and law enforcement standpoint. The primary drug trade in Los Angeles features crack cocaine, heroin, and meth. The dealers primarily operate out of the skid row area, which is frankly not safe for visitors. 25,000 people live in downtown Los Angeles, and 10,000 of them are homeless. The dealers that service this population are dangerous.
Aside from safety on the street, LAPD has been cracking down on crime in downtown Los Angeles . Cameras surveil certain streets, and drug sweeps are relatively common. Weed abounds in Los Angeles and is fairly well tolerated, just don't try and buy it downtown on the street.
