Here’s top 10 reasons to live in San Francisco for those of you thinking about moving here:
1. San Francisco is one of the “greenest” cities in the world. (Ranked Top 5 in the U.S.)
2. San Francisco is surrounded by water and ocean breeze is better air than air in most other metropolitan cities.
3. San Francisco is one of the most diverse cities in the world. (It’s also home to the biggest gay community in the world)
4. San Francisco is a mix of the beach/city/suburban setting all-in-one. (Of course, it’d depend where you live)
5. San Francisco is cool in the summer and does not get cold as much as inland bay area cities.
6. Cheap Chinese food and cheap chinese groceries. On contrary to your belief, San Francisco is actually cheaper in food prices if you shop at a “chinese” grocery where they don’t tax you like the major groceries. Plus, there are so many Chinese restaurants that Chinese food gets very very cheap in San Francisco.
7. San Francisco is the heart of culture of the Western Hemisphere of the U.S. There’s no other place like it period.
8. Lower crime rates and less race-related violence in San Francisco. (than L.A.)
9. City life without the cost of city pollution.
10. Lots of fun stuff to do including clubbing, parks, museums, shopping, etc…etc…
If it ain’t in New York, it’s probably in San Francisco.

Wholly crap, 3 people died from road-rage shootings in San Francisco!
I can understand as most of San Francisco residents are driving maniacs with no patience whatsoever. Well, “some” are good drivers but mostly, and sadly, my city is full of lunatics who CAN’T drive and should take public transportation instead.
Just be careful when you drive, and don’t get in fights.
Anthony, 48, and Michael, 20, were pronounced dead at the scene and the third victim was transported to San Francisco General Hospital. The brother’s name has not been released.
Sgt. Neville Gittens said the man was placed on life-support but that the family Tuesday decided to take him off the machines that were keeping him alive.
Police believe the victims were driving south on Congdon Street when shots were fired from another vehicle driving north in the area of Maynard Street. The suspect vehicle drove off north on Congdon Street.
Williams said as many as three men, described as having close-cropped hair, were believed to be in the suspect vehicle. The vehicle was described as a newer-model, bluish-gray or greenish-gray Chrysler 300M with tinted windows and chrome rims.

Here’s an interesting crime map from 2003. I recommend that you do not live too close to downtown, that is unless you live in a nice secure high-rise condo.
