My opinion:
- Seattle has more diverse industry. I toured the bio-science companies down at the harbor and was really impressed. Seattle is more than just "tech".
- SF is way too restrictive with allowing new housing to be built. I did not perceive the problem to be as bad in Seattle.
- In SF, a lot of the streets reeked of weed--It's like when someone cranks up their music too loud forcing everyone to listen to it. I don't care if someone smokes weed, I just don't want to smell it everywhere--it's not family friendly. Meanwhile, Seattle's streets appeared much cleaner to me when I explored the city (on foot).
- ng12 9y ago> In SF, a lot of the streets reeked of weed What? Where did you live? I never once had that problem. It's not like the entirety of SF smells like weed 24/7, I think that's a pretty absurd strike to give a city (especially since it's legalized in WA).
- jostmey 9y agoIt was around 2013 and I stayed at the Holiday Inn civic center. I explored around on foot. I remember wanting to get the fresh ocean air in my room (because of the funky odor in my room) and deciding to close my windows because all I smelled outside was weed (though lots of places smelled of weeed)
- ng12 9y agoYeah, Civic Center is a dumpster fire. Lots of earthy folks hanging about. I used to avoid it as much as possible, which was getting harder after Twitter/Uber/Square/etc moved down there.
- glibgil 9y agoReeking of weed is like ambulance and police sirens. You only notice it the first two weeks of moving to a crowded city
- thatswrong0 9y ago> - In SF, a lot of the streets reeked of weed And that's not the worst thing I constantly smell / see being done on the streets.
- mrep 9y agoyou still live in seattle because I smell it everywhere?
