- DoreenMichele 8y agoThe San Francisco Bay Area is the only part of the US with a Mediterranean climate. As I said, there are many factors, weather being just one.
- true_religion 8y agoReally? Our entire continent, and only one city has truly good weather, which is the city just you happen to live in? That sounds like old fashioned vanity.
- DoreenMichele 8y agoThe San Francisco Bay Area has more than 100 cities. I don't live there. I have never lived in San Francisco and I moved away from the Bay Area many years ago.
- dragonwriter 8y ago“Good weather” is highly ambiguous. “Mediterranean climate” (while there is some fuzziness at the boundary) is much less so. While the initial claim was slightly overstated in claiming uniqueness, the SFBA is pretty special in that regard.

- dragonwriter 8y ago> The San Francisco Bay Area is the only part of the US with a Mediterranean climate. No, it's not. A significant fraction of California outside of the Bay Area, and some of Oregon and, IIRC, Washington also does.
- DoreenMichele 8y agoI stand corrected: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediterranean_climate https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediterranean_climate
- prablenha 8y ago>and i live in europe What do you mean by this? Because I live in Europe too and it's rare to see a homeless person, even in the bigger cities.
