San Francisco is a big city with thousand of opportunities! The city can be your best friend if you know how to jump in and take hold of it. Visit! Visiting the city before moving or going to college in the area is something I would highly suggest. The media's perspective of the city compare to what the city is actually like is completely different. The is little greenery, except at parks, the scenery is amazing and the people are all unique and weird in their own way. There are a lot of homeless people and people down on the luck and everyone you meet in San Francisco is usually in a transitional period so friendships are most likely temporary. Many people love it so If you plan on moving to San Francisco DO IT! Be careful, Be aware and be a go getter! Good Luck!
San Francisco is a historical city with plenty of touristic landmarks to visit. What I love about this city is its diverse community and friendly environment. People are very open minded and it feels like a welcoming environment. Small businesses are able to thrive due to the curiosity of San Franciscans who enjoy trying new types of food. You can literally find small local businesses in every corner. Are you in the mood for Peruvian food? Maybe you're in the mood for Chinese, Japanese, or Indian food? San Francisco offers a variety of places to eat, with plenty of these places enriched with cultural dishes, traditions, and art. Enjoy the wonderful atmosphere in this little big city. Enjoy learning about the abundant amount of history behind its breathtaking landmarks like the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, lombard street, and much more!
I currently live in San Francisco and despite being a recent immigrant from El Salvador, in San Francisco I feel at home. The community is very welcoming and I just love the diversity and openness of the city.
Besides its skyrocking rent prizes which makes it harder to afford living here, the only aspect that I dislike a little bit is the constantly changing and unpredictable weather. One must always have ano extra jacket in hand almost every day because it's always windy and foggy. Other than that, I have words of love about SF and it's people!
