Tech overkill destroyed the loveliest, liveliest city on the West Coast
- georgeecollins 11y agoI am a fifth generation Californian, I was born there, my Dad was born there, my Mom and her mom were born in Oakland.. I don't live in San Francisco anymore, although my sister still does. There was something really special about San Francisco, that I imagine was like New Orleans, that has kind of just gone away. It is still very pretty and a nice place to live. I am glad the tech industry is so successful. I encourage everyone on this forum to move to California and do really well. Let's make it the richest, most forward thinking, most progressive place on the planet. Things change and I can accept that.
