It really depends on what triggers your asthma and where you're living now. For me, the west coast, including LA is easier on my asthma because it's a much dryer climate than where I grew up in the east, even if it's possible the air quality is lower.

It could, depending on what environmental factors trigger your asthma. The air is warmer and dryer than, say Washington state, but if pollution is an issue with you, then it could get worse. Talk to your allergist and see what he says about environmental triggers.

depends on your triggers. you really cant' know unless you get there.

I moved to AZ and it was awful for me. PA with all of it's greenery works better for me.

it might because of the smog
