CA bases have been consistently junior for years, probably due to high cost and AS targeting PNW/AK applicants (who then get forced to commute for a while). Also due to lack of interest in AS from CA pilots who have many other options.
It will be interesting to see how SAN shakes out. Are you planning to bid for SAN or stay in LAX? LAX seems to be a bit more senior on the Captain side of the house.
