I'm not a big fan of SF and have only been twice but I see the appeal. There are a ton of job opportunities for tech workers (yes, there are a ton of opportunities for SWEs just about everywhere but SF is another level, especially if you like startups). Weather there is almost always reasonably comfortable. You're on the ocean. Mountains for skiing/snowboarding, hiking, climbing, whatever else you might want to do are close enough that you can reasonably drive to them on the weekend. And it's got all the standard big city things: diverse selection of really good food, live music, clubs/night life, an lgbtq+ scene, art, just lots of culture in general.
