I thought that, but in the last 6 months living at the top of golden gate heights, the number of garage and car break ins was crazy. Felt like one a day.
They’d case the block in broad daylight. I used to leave my car unlocked so at least there’d be no broken glass. Garage door openers were getting stolen and they’d come back to those houses later to empty out the garage. Cops never turned up when called.
Anyway we moved out of SF a month ago. No chance I’m paying that rent or mortgage in a city that won’t enforce its laws. Seattle’s been awesome so far.
- ALittleLight 5y agoWow. If you think Seattle is awesome SF must've been bad. Please come to lovely Bellevue sometime. Much cleaner and safer than Seattle.
- SmellTheGlove 5y agoEh, we looked on the east side. To each their own, but it felt lacking to us. I spent a great decade in Northern New England before heading west for a career, and I'll probably end up back there one day, but I value the diversity and even a bit of the grit Seattle has. I don't live in Belltown, so I find the city to be pretty clean and safe. This isn't a swipe at Bellevue, it's just not for us. That was probably a swipe at Belltown though :D
- Seattle3503 5y ago> Seattle’s been awesome so far. Seattle might be headed that way with our city council. Make sure to vote.
- ergocoder 5y agoLet's make sure SF is the example of what not to do. In order for that to happen, SF needs to be more progressive and more restorative justice. If this actually works, then we would love to learn that lesson. Don't stop yelling at police, your colleagues, and city leaders. Keep yelling, so they won't prosecute petty crimes.
