I don't think it's quite there yet as of right now.
In terms of transit, give it maybe 50 years when a few large transit projects are completed and we can assess the impact. The D Line Extension, Sepulveda Transit Corridor, K Line Northern Extension, and Vermont Transit Corridor are the four big ones that I think will be transformative to help elevate LA to the next tier.
As far as housing, there seems to be a lot of housing going up but they're usually podium towers and have a loooot of parking included. LA seems to be doing a decent job of concentrating the housing developments around transit stops, but they still contain more parking than units the majority of the time. This may also be a classic chicken/egg scenario where Angelenos are forced to drive given insufficient alternative transportation, or also just the huge availability of parking and auto oriented development making it easier and more convenient to drive. The above transit projects should hopefully help with that.
