These are all my personal opinions.
There is lack of law and consequences for bad behavior. It comes from leaders that are afraid of extreme liberal backlash and outrage. Unfortunately, I'd even say there is a disdain for police officers in SF. That has to be an incredibly hard and frustrating job.
I've been in SF for over 5 years, but enough is enough and I moving out next month for Nashville, Tennessee. Downtown SF is no place to raise a family.
- tfmatt 9y agoCan you expanded on why Nashville? I have heard this exact same scenario 3 times in the last month on HN. Super curious, thanks.
- nodesocket 9y agoYou sure it wasn't me? :-) From another one of my comments. > Nashville is growing and expanding like crazy. I believe it is in the top 10 fastest growing US cities and it is VERY business friendly (no state income tax) and has favorable small business conditions. While Nashville is certainly a music city, the business environment continues to improve. > Ready to settle and slow life down. I absolutely love music (played drums and piano) and really enjoy the amazing live music scene in Nashville. I also found that people are super friendly, charming, and ultra polite in Nashville. That southern charm is real.
- tfmatt 9y agoit was you, best of luck
- luckydude 9y agoI'm not ready to move there, only visited it once to give a paper at a product line conference. I have to say it was _way_ better than I expected. The music scene is just insane, every bar has a stage with decent people playing. All the time. Crazy fun. And I'm a hockey fan - the Nashville fans are off the charts. I've thought about going back there just to watch a game :) I'm pretty entrenched where I am but I'd consider living there.
