The problem I have is the hyperbole and broad sweeping generalizations of the article which really reduce America and the world down to tech, SF, and New York when there is a much more to the world out there. Almost every line about the uniqueness of SF is really just a comparison to NYC. Is America really just SF and NYC? It is so myopic that it's hard to take it seriously. San Francisco is a city with beautiful natural surroundings but so is Denver, Boulder, Seattle, Jackson, Honolulu, Kahului, San Diego, Los Angeles, Anchorage, Salt Lake City, Sedona, Carmel, etc. Even if by city they mean a large city or metropolis, I would still argue that Los Angeles, San Diego, and Seattle would be in the same tier of beauty.
