10 Reasons Why You Should NEVER Move to San Francisco

San Francisco is a terrible place. If you live there, this is no surprise. Here are ONLY 10 of the reasons why you should never move to San Francisco.

There’s a new man in the neighborhood.
Lives downstairs and he underfoot
Here’s there just to ask me for money
Like he’s one of the family.

San Francisco Oh we’re so over it
San Francisco Oh you used to be lit

Cause you see - now you’re not a place for me.

San Francisco Oh we’re so over you
San Francisco Oh you are now all bad

Cause you see - I don't want no more bad on me.

I live in the Bay Area. I wanted to watch this and complain about how ridiculous your reasons are. But everything you say is correct. I retire in 2 months and I am already packed to move out of CA completely. I will enjoy my future visits but I don't want to live here anymore. The worst is the politics that creates the homeless and addict epidemic and the smash and grab gangs sponsored by overseas criminal organizations that terrorize every citizen who has to park a car on the streets.

I lived in Bay area and yess!!!! You can smell poop & urine everywhere. I definitely hate to go into the city one of these days.

Was born and raised in San Francisco, lived there in the 70s and 80s...last time I was there was 1997. And already I noticed a HUGE number of homeless then....especially on Market Street. So sad to see what it has become. 😯 But even still, I will always remember it fondly as home.

I'm a born and raised SF native and I agree with almost everything you said about the city

When I was a kid (in L.A.) visiting San Francisco was a treat. It was swanky, elegant a bit snobby. Years later, when I visited again, I was followed around by a bum. So sad to see the decline.

I agree with everything except for the weather, I like it temperate all year round and there's actually more sun then you'll think there is.

[bruh_hahaha]

a city that “bans plastic straws but pass out needles” That sentence nails it on head. THANK YOU.

As a native Californian and a resident of SF for 52 years, you are absolutely on point. SF is not want it used to be or will it ever be. Yuppies and gentrification have taken over the City. Neighborhoods are disappearing such as the Fillmore, Western Addition, the Mission, Third Street, Hunter's Point etc. The flavor and ambiance of SF no longer exist. Sad but true.

Born and raised in SF, had to leave to the East Bay because of cost of living. Love the city though, it's a shame that so difficult to maintain a life there because you feel like the walking dead from working so much.

- 1997/1999 during Fleet Week:
This place is awesome!!!
- 2020 watching these videos:
I don't think I'll be returning

Never knew this about San Francisco. Almost sounds like New York where I live especially brooklyn which we call the toilet, with it's smelly subway system and hoards of homeless all over the place. Only the winter brings some relief. It took the coronavirus to force the MTA bus and subway system to be cleaned every night, now that's sad!

Yuck! You shouldn't wear flip flops anywhere.

My stomping grounds between '88 and '96. Lived on the Presidio, experienced the '89 earthquake, got married there, any my kids were born there. Loved it at the time.

I went to San Fran in 1997 and it was an amazing city. Sad to see the state of it today.

[Aleyderp]

I can give 100 more reasons why, living here my whole life I wanna get out.

The rest, you re right on. It was thee place for artists and nice people until about 1995. It was perfect and fun before 1995.
