Sure, SF is merely masquerading as a world class city, by the people that live in the area. It has no grip on its elementary problems that actual world class cities have developed solutions for.
But you can have a good time there. Nobody will actually know if you live in an apartment and have startups give you free food everyday, or if you live in a tent under the highway.
Now if you are trying to earn enough to make a downpayment for a place in San Francisco.... thats not in the cards.
- andrewbinstock 10y agoWhat makes a world-class city? I'd say great architecture, great culture, high-quality museums, good schools, great universities, excellent hospitals. And people who care about each other. San Francisco has all of those.

- umanwizard 10y agoAll of that stuff put together matters less than basic quality-of-life stuff like "not having to own a car". I go to the museum a few times a year; I take the train twice a day. I'll stay in the city with good trains over good museums.
