It sounds like Milos has a great gym, and if you already live in OC I'm sure that's the place to train, but there really is no "mecca" anymore in the style of Venice of the 70's & 80's.
Cali is too expensive for an aspiring bodybuilder, and with the internet, you really don't have to be in a particular location to be "hooked in". Bodybuilders live everywhere now, either their hometown, or whatever city they chose to call home after they were out of school.
Why would you want to live in Venice? So you can work out with Bob "rusty was robbed" Chick and Tom "I almost died for you bitches" Prince?
