I'm not even sure what "cartoonish" means. Where did you get that assessment?
Having grown up in and around SF for my formidable years, SF has charm but seriously lacks in affordability. I can't imagine what you mean by cartoonish.
- hallowtech 13y agoMaybe this is why he thinks they're cartoonish? http://www.thebolditalic.com/articles/1958-moving-to-san-francisco http://www.thebolditalic.com/articles/1958-moving-to-san-fra... http://www.thebolditalic.com/articles/2138-moving-to-san-francisco-part-2 http://www.thebolditalic.com/articles/2138-moving-to-san-fra...
- peterwwillis 13y agoYep. When visiting SF, I tried to walk a lot to see the city change. Going into different neighborhoods felt more like stepping into completely different cities. I'd hear X neighborhood was full of Y, and it was exactly that. Perhaps it blends more once you live there, but I was really struck by the cultural divisions.
- gregd 13y agoWell after seeing those "postcards", cartoonish is becoming clearer. As a child in SF, I remember each neighborhood changing ONLY as you got to the center of each hood. There used to not be any strong demarcation lines, if that makes sense. Perhaps that's grown out of the overpopulation?
