SF is similar and the excuse almost always is: job opportunities. We can actually move out now that we work remotely but my SO’s salary would be decreased by her company based on change of location and she doesn’t want that.
Writing that I do realize that its actually second. First reason for most people is probably just inertia.
- opportune 4y agoSF is not that similar to Portland. While we have homeless people in SF their behavior is much more under control (and concentrated) than it is in Portland. I think a lot of it is actually more “the pendulum” of attitudes towards things like homelessness and other “nuisances”. When we’re overly strict, the pendulum starts swinging back towards acceptance and laisezz faire because inevitably injustices occur and people decide to become more compassionate. When we’re overly permissive (like many west coast cities right now, though I think the opioid crisis has a big role too) the pendulum starts swinging towards cracking down. New York has basically gone through this entire process already
- thatfrenchguy 4y agoSF has so many neighborhoods where homelessness is not an issue though?
