Thinking to potentially move out to SF. I think it’s pretty easy to find things on the “cons” list from reading posts here but maybe this will bring more positive vibe. What are some things/places that makes you appreciate the SF Bay area?
Weather, diversity and opportunities in tech.
Bay Area is a shit hole. Having living in NYC, Miami, LA and Toronto, there Bay is the absolute worst. It has no unique element that makes it better than the others, for instance, Toronto and NYC have better food culture, Miami has better weather and beaches. I guess the only real thing SF had is hills and the bridge but that’s really not worth it.

Great people, work, and vibe. Takes a while to integrate, everything worth doing is invite only so focus on making friends first. Till then you have tons to do, lots of entertainment, more Michelin star restaurants per square mile than anywhere else, and year around activities.

Most of the neighborhoods east of Divisadaro and north of market in SF are great, and beautiful, clean and very peaceful. Nice restaurants, bars, coffee shops. Incredible weather for outdoors and if you enjoy biking/running/hiking/surfing/windsurfing, it’s almost paradise given the weather is always between 50 to 70 deg. Affordability is a challenge and if you work at Apple as the one who’s getting cuked then commute is awful. Find a good high paying job in SF and live in a nice neighborhood, you’ll love it. Of course NYC has more places and better places, but good weather and outdoor activities all year in NYC is nonexistent.

What’s not positive? Love the Bay Area. SF is ok.
While the rest of the country is burning from scorching heat, this was from my morning run :)
I mean I'm not sure you wanna get high and mighty about weather-related disasters in other parts of the country, the sky was fucking orange like less than a year ago and the whole place looked like Mordor.
Poop is the most positive thing about SF. Clearing out one's bowels is bound to bring you joy, happiness, and of course productivity.
That's true. There were Starbucks everywhere which made it easy.
