Toronto to SF

Flew here for the first time for an interview and staying near Mission district. Can't understand why's there so much hype about this city. Below are some of the early impressions: -Ultra inflated prices -More homeless than normal people -People peeing in the streets -So many druggies (saw people injecting themselves while walking on Market St) -Super dry weather -Ancient infrastructure I imagined all this sooo differently. Big disappointment!

You have way more benefits as a citizen in Canada thought

Yep def SF, but also seems like your basing this on a small area ie. Soma, Mission, Civic Center. If you check out Marina, Nob Hill, Pac Heights then youā€™ll see really nice areas without any homeless. Not saying SF is worth the price but there are definitely nice areas that donā€™t have any of that shit you described

Troll/journo. A real Canadian is so nice that they would apologize before criticizing, esp. when they offer it after visiting for 1 day in 1 hood :)
