    I am sure you have never visited the Hunter's Point, the Mission District and the Cow Palace neighborhood.

    I love the city, but the surrounding suburbs are miserable.

    SF is where I'm heading the next time I visit Cali.

    I just got back from LA. Man, the traffic was brutal. I've been there many times but I finally got to check out Laguna and Newport beach. Freakin beautiful area!

    This chart says it all.

    Is there more perfect weather anywhere else in the continental US?

    San Diego.

    In SF, temperature is nice, but the gloominess and rain during the winter somewhat offsets that.

    I lived in Pt. Reyes, and In San Rafael, both located in Marin County which is just North of the Golden Gate Bridge. Marin County and Sonoma County as well are very nice places to visit or live, if you can deal with the cost of living there.

    You guys are wanting to make me check san Fran out big time now.

    I lived in Riverside for about 5 years but that was back when I was 1 so I don't remember hardly anything, but I'm sure I've at least been driven through it. That weather seems amazing, and if I'm not in the mood to deal with the fog or rain I could drive half an hour and be in what seems a whole new state.

    Perhaps that's one of the reasons SF is such a gorgeous place? :cool:

    Give up your color/race conciousness already.

    That's a ****in' lie. The whole country is compartmentalized. How many blacks do you see in river oaks?

    The black people in California are smarter and more open-minded.

    San Francisco is the perfect example of the type of city you get when lower income people are generally priced out of it.

    Then I looked up San Diego.

    Then, I looked up Houston.

    This really upsets me. June and September should've been highlighted in red on the Houston chart too. I love Texas, but this weather, mainly the humidity, is really making me want to move. Maybe one day I can have a summer home like my neighbor. That b*stard.
