    I came back from SF 2 mths ago to the UK. Had an amazing time there. Didn't feel unsafe at all, people friendly. Told to avoid the Tenderloin, which we did. Stayed at the Fairmont, Nob Hill. SF has its problems, like most cities. The Media do like hype up problems

      I lived in Nob Hill, Hayes and Noe Valley and in the Dolores/Castro area but shop Dwtn SF, Soma and Union but hang out everywhere, there’s homeless guys EVERYWHERE, especially at night along the streets in the upscale merchants areas. It’s so expensive and parking smash and grabs with cars and smartphones are a common occurrence. It’s always foggy and cold. It’s typically in the upper 50-62 degrees without sunshine. Think Seattle weather. It can also and does rain spontaneously. Black clouds and rain pours down after it’s been sunny. The steep heels can be taxing whenever walking, carrying heavy bags and driving. I was born in SF and went to college in the bay. Also, everything closes early there. It’s also not as friendly as it was before Facebook, Twitter, and some other startups bought up and demolished all the apt buildings for their offices.

      The media like to hype?? You visited SF so you had stars in your eyes and was in a bubble of disconnect from reality.
      My whole family lived in SF since 1983, and I worked there 1983 till I retired in 2022. The topography of the city is beautiful. But compared to the QUALITY of life in the 80s, 90s, 2000s, to 2008 today's SF is nothing. It's even less than a shell of what it used to be.

  • @karnubawax
    @karnubawax 7 місяців тому +8

    Yes, SF has lower rates of violent crime, but property crime is among the worst in the nation. And it's even worse than the stats because most people who have their car windows smashed don't even bother to call the police. I made that mistake once. They literally laughed at me.

    Every city has huge issues. I am in Vancouver and we have immense issues of opioid use and homelessness which is worsened severely with mental illness. We are working hard to help these issues in YVR and I know San Francisco is as well. I never feel unsafe in SF or Manhattan or most cities for that matter. I have huge compassion for people struggling with drugs and mental illness.

      Why can't people take care of themselves?
      I am guessing you must live in public housing, because you do not seem to understand the relationships between work and earning the money to pay for a place to live.
      Do you also believe it is the government's reponsibility to pay for your food, insurance and drugs? C'mon! You'll fit right in!

    I live in San Francisco and every single day I walk to work and have to step over human excrement. I see homeless people walking around outside half naked and high and the city does not care. I am LGBTQ so I can say whatever I want about them. After a LGBTQ event I went to a pizza place and stood behind a gay man who was wearing nothing but a thong. I am staying because I want to become a software engineer.
