NA Ping
Like honestly I feel like I have to move to Cali to get even decent ping on the NA server. Granted I am in New York and the ISP's are horrible over here, but it would be nice to not have 900+ ms spikes.

Ping spikes are your ISP, not the server location.
When I lived in a building (in Toronto) with a dedicated wired in internet from a provider that doesn't normally offer internet in Toronto, even on wifi I had a stable 25ms ping that never spiked. Now, still in Toronto, with either of Canada's biggest providers, I consistently get ping spikes. Sometimes we're talking 9000ms ping spikes. It's absurd. I absolutely have to play on a wired connection, and even then I've still disconnected or had ping spikes occasionally (albeit very rare when playing wired).
The 25ms ping is what the server is capable of for Toronto. Anything I get above that is due to my ISP being garbage.
Not the servers, it's your wifi signal and possibly ISP. Btw is California known to have good ping/internet or something? I live in Tennessee I get 21ms flat with comcast, though I do get spikes somewhat often, it is just because I am ran wireless with countless devices in my house running off of the same wifi, easy for me to pick up interference.
Way late to the party, but riot's servers are in chicago and have been for some time

I live in New York too and I get a steady 35ms lol
... first off your not going to get better ping in CA... the riot servers right outside of chicago.. you are geographically closer where u are now.
the problem you have is completely different and look like a packet loss/wifi issue
it's not based on location
