Im trying to move out there soon so this was helpful. Moving there when youre not the typical tech person makes finances a bit hard but im determined. Thank you!
I'm so glad you touched on the diversity part. Most of the people making these videos are Asian or White, so they skip it as it doesn't affect them. As a black person myself in SF, I have found it super isolating, segregated and passive aggressively racist which is ironic cause it's supposed to be a "woke" city. I work in a FAANG company and make so much money but still so unhappy here. I'm moving to NY next month, so much diverse and much less isolating to black people. You see friend groups with all races instead of one or the other. Also NY is way cleaner than SF. Poop, pee and needles on the street for me is a no-no. I don't know how you do it but after 4 years of living here, I'm done. Anyways you've got a new subscriber, looking forward to more insightful videos!
Thanks and welcome to my channel!!! The lack of diversity and interracial friend groups is definitely a downer. Best of luck in your move to NYC. I’m sure you’ll have so much fun!!!
You're perspective on diversity in SF is very PC. I was a NYC transplant that lived in the Peninsula, North Beach and Polk Gulch. Hiked everywhere, partied, and had access to places you see in lifestyle magazines, etc. Lived there 6yrs but nvr felt as comfortable as my white, brown or Asian friends that have a larger pool of ppl to mingle with. SF and the Bay Area is wonderful and the tech / NERD scene there is on steroids, lol. Still keep in contact with friends from all backgrounds I met there. I'll nvr tell a blk person not to move there. However, mentally prepare yourself if you do. I still have some form of PTSD from some of the racial instances I experienced at work and play there.
OMG I couldn't agree with you any more. I just returned from NY last week and let me just tell you this, it is so refreshing! The moment I come back to sf, I already regret it. NY is so diverse and friendly and so many new things to do. AND YES YOU DO SEE EVERYBODY of different race/ culture and background hanging out together. Sorry California, I love you dearly its where I'm from, but NY is killing it!
Hi! I live here and totally agree with everything you said! I would also add that people are glued to their phones and a lot of guys seem to lack some basic social skills. However, I found it is pretty easy to make friends and I love the urban/nature mix here. Some amazing hiking spots!
You’re so right! I’m gonna have to do a part 2 bc there’s so much I left out on both sides. Agree with you on the awkward guys as well as how awesome it is to have so many hiking trails accessible to us! Not to mention the “urban hikes” you can do, too 😁

I live in the East Bay. I worked in SF went to school there too SFSU. I was there last weekend for the first time in a while went to the De Young, I noticed as an African American how much less diverse it's gotten in the last few years. It was never as diverse as some of the other places in the Bay but is noticeably much less now. I actually watched the video because I wanted to see a black girl living in SF. Thanks!
TBH That's also why I clicked on this video. I may be moving there from Atlanta, and I am wondering if I'm going to experience total culture shock. I would love a video on your experiences!
@@taylorsee864 girl, you aint seen culture shock like Im dealing with, in Asheville, NC...whoever tagged Asheville as "Little San Francisco" (I kid you not), should be hit in the mouth with a ball peen hammer. Here in, allegedly progressive Asheville, we got "Proud Boys"walking around in Wal Mart, wearing the black/gold polo shirts...you see confederate-this and that, every other day....and you see very, VERY FEW black folk, doing a whole lot outside their neighborhoods (I dont think there are black neighborhoods here, to begin with). Ive been here almost 3 yrs. Im born and raised in 'Chocolate City"/DC, so "color" and diversity is all I know...but people of color here, are so off the grid, its a shame. Moving to SF, would be like dying and going to Heaven. And I have a lot of history there, so that helps...well, not as much as my job...but history there, helps.
Thank you so much for this video. I’m thinking of moving there and found this very informative. I especially wanted the perspective from a Black woman for various reasons.
Omg I absolutely loved this video ❤️ i live in Seattle but visited San Francisco and thinking about moving in January. Thanks for sharing your experience I love your positive attitude and vibe
As someone moving to SF, I enjoyed this! Thank you 😊 the poop part was a bit extreme but it’s too late to change my mind on things haha this move is happening
I live in San Francisco, and where I live there are no homeless people nor any of this infamous poop. I'm not going to deny it doesn't happen (sh*t happens😁) , but certainly not everywhere as some make it out to be.
I was 17 years old when I came to San Francisco for the very first time. It was a drizzly day in January 1964, but I had just come from a blizzard back East. I walked from 7th and Market to the top of Telegraph Hill and then to the top of Coit Tower. What I saw up there transformed me permanently. How could I possibly spend my life anywhere else? I love this city so much. I understand the idea that some people don't like it here. Fine. Go away. If you belong here - you will know it. The thrill of knowing how much I belong here has never ebbed. Her beauty is unsurpassed.
I'm thinking of relocating to SF and found this to be a really informative video! The perspective you shared seems really fair - I've only been to SF twice but did a whole lot each time, so I found the pros and cons you shared to be accurate. If I move there I'll keep all of this in mind!
@@florencewadley For sure! I actually do have another question: did you find the lack of diversity in the city to be a problem in making friends? I used to live in SoCal and had a really diverse friend group, so that's something I'd love to find in SF too.
@@dbowe4415 sf is not very diverse or known for having tons of POC but Oakland is and it’s a hop skip and a jump away over the bridge! (About 15-20 mins away from downtown sf), there are lots of events and orgs you can join over there to expand your network!
I enjoyed your video. I grew up in SF and worked in Civic Center for 25 years so I understand some of your frustrations. I retired last year and moved to Las Vegas. Lower cost of living as I was able to afford a townhouse. Good luck!
Great video. I am considering leaving the "boring" Bay Area aka the Peninsula :D. I've been looking for videos to help me decide and you're one of the few POC that has a video about their opinion of SF. This is so helpful because I think the Bay can be segregated - I live in a predominately latino neighborhood and am a little scare to leave somewhere so [culturally] familiar. Were you able to make connection with a diverse set of people, and if so, how? Thanks!
Thank you so much Florence! Your name is that of both of my grandmothers and would have been my baby’s middle name in 1995 if he had been a girl. He was born in Berkeley’s Alta bates but was raised for first 3 years in lower knob-upper tenderloin where our apartment and cafe were. The milkbean is what the cafe is now called. It was a very dirty palm-reader/psychic reading studio and then vacant for a couple years until we remodeled and got it licensed for food service. We got divorced and I moved my baby back to Minnesota and his father went back to France and Algeria. But we got together for a family reunion in sf just 6 months ago. It was so wonderful to be back. And the San Francisco Baby (my son) now wants to move there!!! And so do I! Thank you so much for being candid about the self-segregating that goes on. When will it ever end????? Back in the 90’s the lower knob and upper tenderloin were very much a self segregated “foreigner” neighborhood. Immigrants of all skin tones and continents seems to live there. And they self segregated from each other. Sf needs to solve the poop problem. That needs to be priority number 1 (no pun intended but noted as pee being #1 & poo #2). I hope you will stay there and prosper Florence. Maybe you could be on city council or run for mayor to help solve priority #1. Im not back yet but as soon as I can, I will be. And I would vote for you!
Do you have a video comparing living in South Bay vs living in SF? I’m considering moving from San Jose to the city but it’d be helpful to hear from someone who’s lived in both places?
The Tenderloin has gotten worse during the pandemic entire streets are closed with homeless and drug addicts, it’s unfortunate. But I love living downtown because it’s just so convenient.
@@florencewadley is the poop is ONLY in tenderloin? And is emeryville consider the bay? and is there amusement park in the bay? Zoo? Is the BART a subway?
@@smileyyyyy1249 the poop is ubiquitous! Emeryville is over the bay bridge right next to Oakland it’s basically the same thing. There is an Oakland zoo and sf zoo. There’s an amusement park north of sf I believe as well as one that is south called great America.
@@smileyyyyy1249 Florence hit it on the head... Emeryville is basically a small town sandwiched by Oakland and Berkeley, most only stop there to go to Ikea...Great America is an amusement park in Santa Clara (next to Levi's Stadium). Then there's Six Flags in Vallejo. Most counties in the bay has yearly fairs (except SF of course) that usually run for several weeks and offer amusement type rides and vibes...SF has a zoo next to the beach, it's usually cold. Oakland's zoo is warmer and offers an overhead "tram" that offers amazing east bay views.
Thank you for this awesome video. I’m moving to SF in September so this was helpful. How did you go about making friends with poc? I’m from nj so so the lack of diversity makes me nervous
That’s exciting! Hmmm how did I do that....i would suggest joining YBSF if you can. Maybe join some college alumni groups that are in the area. Also Oakland has way more POC living there so perhaps look out for events or volunteer opportunities in that area. Good luck!
Hi Florence. Thanks for this video. Can someone living in San Francisco escape the poop issue by choosing a different neighborhood? Or is the issue all over all neighborhoods? And which neighborhoods don’t have the poop issue?
As a local, that issue is only where there's a lot of homeless which is mainly in the Tenderloin, the Mission and South of Market. Most of the city is cleaner
Have lived in SF for decades and basically agree with all of your points. However, having been lucky enough (or *old* enough...?) to have experienced it in the 80s and onward, the impacts of how much it has changed from an artsy, funky, diverse, affordable, place to the gentrified uber-expensive place that it is now is disheartening. I too live TL-adjacent and work in social services, not tech. That is a big challenge at times. I would advise anyone who is thinking of moving here to truly, carefully check out the rental prices before moving. And remember, that inexpensive room in a household that you see advertised might get scores of applicants. Rental prices now are no joke. Oh, and yes the Gay rights movement did pretty much start in the 60s/70s here, but as you know civil rights/social justice movements are ongoing and the LGBTQ+ movement is no exception!
Hi!! I need some advice. Happy about any comment. So I'm doing an AuPair year, I'm from Germany and have the choice of going to work in San Francisco (living in Noe Valley), or living in San Diego (Chula Vista Eastlake). As the cost of living doesn't make a difference for me as I won't be paying rent, which location would you chose for a year of living there? Location wise, what would be more worth it? I just can't really decide after everything I've read an heard so far... Thank you everyone!
Definitely San Francisco! Without a doubt. San Diego is great (I grew up there actually) but sf is way easier to get around, and is more of a traditional city than San Diego is. If you love the beach tho, then maybe San Diego is the right choice…hope that helps!
Idk if SF is really somewhere people get super comfortable. I see it as a city to do a stint in and then leave to somewhere else. My stint is just lasting a really long time 🤣🤣
I’m in that boring part 😩😩😂😂 I could definitely make a million pros and cons videos on Cali 😂 great video! Side note: stay safe next to the tenderloin 😩😩
Unfortunately, there is no San Francisco Museum to show how great The City was. Fleishhacher Pool, Ewing Stadium, Playland at the Beach, Ocean Beach Sky Tram, Seals Stadium, Millionaire Row Mansions next to the ex Flood Mansion. In addition, the history of quarries, and Chinatown hidden spots are equally fascinating. Even SF Cemeteries are not morbid fascination, but incredible history not found in many other places in the world. SF waterfront has changed roles many times over decades to provide great insights into the greatness that SF represents. The Architecture is another super interesting topic. How SF went from art as buildings to a mini Manhattan in just a few short decades. The loves are many. The loath is the stupid retrograde politics and the enablers of crime and drugs.
Move to Toronto you could rent a whole house with that Price, no poop, dog parks, night time scene is fun always something to do! Clubs Beaches, Concerts, After Hours spots only con is Jobs are very skills based like you need experience or a good referal to get a good payong job but you definitely can get a regular paying job, lots of ppl so a lil noisy but very clean
We're visiting San Francisco now. We are looking for things to do (particularly while black lol). So I searched and found this video. Can't wait to hear your whole take.
Well dang.. this tenderloin area sounds very LA.... Which is where we currently live. It's crazy because as we've driven around for a few hours on our 1st day, our take on SF was that its very clean lol. We're gonna seek out this tenderloin area because it's simply not what we've seen in our 20 or so hours here.
That's how we feel about living in LA... very fortunate to live in such a known and celebrated place. Like we watch movies and shows now and they're ALWAYS mentioning LA sites and landmarks we know and can see or have seen. It's a really cool perk.
I lived in the North Bay, Marin county Area on my own (outside the military) for almost three years. This was like from 1980 to 1983. I did one hitch in the coast guard. I didn't want to go back to Texas. So I stayed around. This was just before the Silicon Valley took over. If I lived there now I'd be homeless probably. I had a hard time handling the rent in Marin then. I thought about moving to San Francisco. The rent then was actually cheaper than where I was. It was even less expensive in Oakland. I was in SF all the time. I'd catch the golden gate bus across the bridge then jump on the Mccalister st. bus. McCallister st was in a black part of town. I am African American. I'd get a hair cut there. That area is probably paved over with gentrification now. I find it hard to believe that you criticize mass transportation in San Francisco. Compared to Houston, where I live now, mass transit in San Fran is fantastic. The city SF had a lot of homeless people then. I came back home to Texas and I would tell stories about the homeless in San Francisco. I guess now it has increased 3 or 4 times. Wow! That is hard to imagine. The tenderloin sounds like it hasn't changed. It was bad then. I missed the Bay Area a lot. The horror stories now make me glad I am in Texas. Now they are gentrifying the neighborhoods here. I guess that is progress. I don't know. I have not been back to California since 1984. I've forgotten what it looks like. All the Californians are moving here. Most of them come from Southern Cal. I've met a few blacks from Oakland and San Francisco. I keep hearing about poop in the streets of SF. Homelessness exists here, but it is not that bad, not in most parts of the city. Not yet anyway. I could say more. Maybe another time.
$3100, whew Chile! However, Cali is worth it. I'm moving there if God spares my life Aug 2022 after finishing my Nurse Practitioner degree. The Bay area is my fave, but I may have to start in San Diego for 1 year to complete my residency program.
It’s insane!! Somehow I found a cheaper and bigger apt in the same bldg since this video. I have to admit that was lightning striking bc $3100 is pretty average. I’m from San Diego and think that’s also an incredible city - either way you’ll be good!! And early congrats on your degree!!!
I've never once seen human poop on the ground in New York and we actually have housing for the homeless here... We're a fairly clean city for the most part, so based on what I've heard not comparable to SF IMHO. But I'll be in SF for the first time later this year, so I will find out for myself! :) Great video!!!
I live in San Francisco, Hayes Valley and have lived in Japantown and inner Sunset. Also lived East Bay and Peninsula. I'm a techie, please don't hate me ;-). I agree tech has driven prices up especially housing. I've lived and traveled abroad. Many expensive cities have solved the housing crisis with social housing. Other than being expensive I love San Francisco, never boring with great culture and diversity including of the food. San Francisco is NEVER boring. Great weather and mostly friendly people. Housing is the biggest issue but I think the good out weights the bad. Poop is an issue mostly because of the homeless crisis which is somewhat related to the housing crisis but more complicated than that. There are substance abuse issues, and mental health issues including veterans with PTSD. Need to address the underlying issues of substance abuse and mental health issues. Simply subsidizing housing is not enough. Agreed about the economy very strong especially if you have tech skills. Remote working will probably help, those just coming to San Francisco to work will just stay home leaving SF to the die hard locals maybe lowering cost of housing?
Oh wow I didn’t really answer the question lol. As far as key differences for me - Oakland feels slower and it’s more necessary to have a car there. Sf is faster paced and VERY walkable. I don’t have need for a car here. I also for me sf never gets old whereas in Oakland I did get tired of the usual places. Hope that helps!
AN HE it's a Beautiful city that normal people can afford to live in and still have a life...my uber driver owns his own house and in San Francisco doctors and lawyers are struggling.
I think it’s okay but expect to find a lot of people who don’t know what they want! Since sf is a big city a lot of people are passing thru for school or for job opportunities but have plans of leaving. Ultimately these folks aren’t looking for something serious but may not be super up front about that.
This is a fantastic presentation ,I just came across your channel and I found it very helpful and interesting . I a black foreigner from Africa , I am a nurse and interested in working and living in san Francisco bay area and I love where I can be seen people of black colour like myself . I would have chosen Oakland but I'm afraid of the level of crime in Oakland . So I want to choose between san Francisco and San Jose . Please in your opinion and as a someone who has been living in bay area and as a black lady which one of this cities will be highly recommended for me , consider job opportunities, cost of living and safety . Your reply will be highly appreciated . Thanks.
I would say sf and Oakland are both risky with regard to crime, especially now, so I wouldn’t use that as a deciding factor. For either city I would stay away from the highest crime areas. As long as you pick a “safe” neighborhood you should be ok in either city. As for job opportunities, sf definitely has the most! The cost of living right now is pretty equal but normally sf is more expensive.
Can you make a video on dating in San Diego vs San Francisco?? I feel like their is no black creatives that have done that and i feel like we always have a unique perspective lol
I miss SF/East Bay so much; currently stuck in Florida which I hate so much. But I'm almost done with NP school and can't wait to go back home to the Bay Area. Looking forward to the better pay for nurses in SF because Florida ain't it
Oh gosh, I'm moving to SF this summer after many years in NYC and this freaks me out. The lack of diversity as well as encountering potentially segregated groups gives me pause. I'm very extroverted and friendly, and now I'm fearful I won't be able to find a good core group of people to hang out with. Yikes! Tell me it isn't that bad!
If you are extroverted and friendly, then you’ll likely have a good experience! Socialize with coworkers, get out and do things that interest you and I think you’ll fare pretty well. It’s not the easiest scene, but with some effort, I think most people can create a comfortable situation for themselves. Good luck!
I visited SF and was shook because I rarely saw black people and I was just thinking "where we at? are we in Oakland???" Coming from NY I wasn't used to it at all (east coast in general). Everyone was friendly though.
San Francisco is beautiful except it smells like urine in summer in to many places! I LIVED THERE FOR 28 YEARS and finally got out and so glad I did! GOOD LUCK TO THE NEW COMMERS!
Dear sister I would like to invite you on one of the tenderloin walking tours which I happen to be a part of so that you can see more of some of the good things about the tenderloin your camera past almost by my apartment there I'm on the left hand side of where you were but also engaging with all those people that you walked by with a probably a good idea
I loved this video - thank you for an informative video of the city now. I went to San Francisco in 98 - and I fell in looooove! I mean, OMG the views. But, i was shocked by the segregation. As a Brit, I had been expecting a mixing pot of peoples and it was not like that. It was so segregated - and in fact, we were warned not to go to x, y, z areas because they were "not white" and therefore "dangerous"! I was so shocked to be blatantly told that. We were shown areas and it was like "this is the Italian bit, this is the area the Russian's lived" and it was so weird to me. Overall though, I loved the ecletic vibe of the city, and how stunning the views were. I have heard since however the soul it had then is kind of not the same due to the insane amount of money the tech bro's brought to the city and the rapid gentrification. It's very beautiful though, and like you say, it was the history of the place and the fact that I grew up listening to songs about it, and TV shows with it in, that made it so iconic to vist. I had a choice between SF and NY and chose SF as my one dream holiday (it was expensive back then traveling from the UK so we only did it the one time). I love how you shared the pros and the cons in this video.
San Francisco has been a part of my life since the 1960's. I have watched the changes occur and the "gentrification" you mentioned has nothing whatsoever to do with race, specifically, the white race, it has to do with the Silicon Valley. If you are a techy, you have taken over the city and pushed everyone else out, regardless of color! I have not found it to be as dirty as you said, the Tenderloin is, for sure, but I have not experienced all of the filth you described in this video. It is ridiculously expensive, I will agree with that but that goes back to the takeover by the techys moving in and taking over, which is why I don't live there anymore. As for diversity, San Francisco is the most diverse place I have ever been and I have traveled the globe. The city, like most cities, is divided into neighborhoods but there is fluidity and people come and go between them without any problem. People are simply comfortable with groups they identify with so they tend to congregate together, that's very normal but you don't have overt racism there with strict segregation like you do in other cities. I love San Francisco and enjoy it every time I am there. It has a uniqueness to it I have not found anywhere else.
Yes, once the techies moved in from Amazon and Google, it was the end. Rents will never come down. People complain about the transportation because it was designed for a different time where money went further. People keep to themselves in this city and most of the old timers have left so new ones make the city now. So elect someone to spend the money to build the Muni system and pay the tax but will people in high incomes use it? They will have cars, most of them willing to pay tickets etc.
3100?? HEEEEEELLL NAAAWWW. Do you know what you get for that here in Atlanta? Wow smh. I have to come work there in san fran for a yer starting this summer. ima just stay in my car lol
It's 7x7 miles. I'm a native.. I don't pay rent. I bought 35 years ago when it was cheap and it was expensive then. I can't stand SF anymore and won't go there any longer. I live in Fremont.
Blame SF politicians who make or pass the laws that encourage vandalism and homelessness in the Bay Area. Despite its problems, it is still way better than New York.
Im watching and listening to this video and this lady is pretty is hell maybe I will meet you one day I promise you will be sprung and maybe me too alex a. DalyCITY CALI
Honey I live in Jackson ville Rents 1500 To 2000 Rent Did you hear about inflation 12 ends 8 dollars were 3 Potetos 10 pounds 9 dollars were 4 You get it not only San Francisco do you think it is nice your comments I try to get people to visit move if you not happy
That's my daughter proud of you peaches keep making me proud, I always knew you were born to be a star.
Im trying to move out there soon so this was helpful. Moving there when youre not the typical tech person makes finances a bit hard but im determined. Thank you!

Don't compare NYC to San Francisco because you guys have a lot of poop. We are not covered in crap. We actually have places for homeless people to go.

I'm thinking of relocating to SF and found this to be a really informative video! The perspective you shared seems really fair - I've only been to SF twice but did a whole lot each time, so I found the pros and cons you shared to be accurate. If I move there I'll keep all of this in mind!
Glad this helped! Happy to answer any other questions you may have!
@@florencewadley For sure! I actually do have another question: did you find the lack of diversity in the city to be a problem in making friends? I used to live in SoCal and had a really diverse friend group, so that's something I'd love to find in SF too.
@@dbowe4415 sf is not very diverse or known for having tons of POC but Oakland is and it’s a hop skip and a jump away over the bridge! (About 15-20 mins away from downtown sf), there are lots of events and orgs you can join over there to expand your network!
@@florencewadley Thanks for the response! If I make the move I will definitely keep that in mind, as I enjoyed Oakland the few times I visited.
@@dbowe4415 How would you compare LA to SF or which one u genuinely like better ?
I enjoyed your video. I grew up in SF and worked in Civic Center for 25 years so I understand some of your frustrations. I retired last year and moved to Las Vegas. Lower cost of living as I was able to afford a townhouse. Good luck!
Smart moves!!
Great video. I am considering leaving the "boring" Bay Area aka the Peninsula :D. I've been looking for videos to help me decide and you're one of the few POC that has a video about their opinion of SF. This is so helpful because I think the Bay can be segregated - I live in a predominately latino neighborhood and am a little scare to leave somewhere so [culturally] familiar. Were you able to make connection with a diverse set of people, and if so, how? Thanks!
Great video! Thanks from a fellow San Franciscan (North Beach) 😊
Thank you for watching!
I live in downtown SF myself. Nice video overview of pros and cons.
Thank you!
Thank you so much Florence! Your name is that of both of my grandmothers and would have been my baby’s middle name in 1995 if he had been a girl. He was born in Berkeley’s Alta bates but was raised for first 3 years in lower knob-upper tenderloin where our apartment and cafe were. The milkbean is what the cafe is now called. It was a very dirty palm-reader/psychic reading studio and then vacant for a couple years until we remodeled and got it licensed for food service.
We got divorced and I moved my baby back to Minnesota and his father went back to France and Algeria. But we got together for a family reunion in sf just 6 months ago.
It was so wonderful to be back. And the San Francisco Baby (my son) now wants to move there!!! And so do I!
Thank you so much for being candid about the self-segregating that goes on. When will it ever end????? Back in the 90’s the lower knob and upper tenderloin were very much a self segregated “foreigner” neighborhood. Immigrants of all skin tones and continents seems to live there. And they self segregated from each other.
Sf needs to solve the poop problem. That needs to be priority number 1 (no pun intended but noted as pee being #1 & poo #2). I hope you will stay there and prosper Florence. Maybe you could be on city council or run for mayor to help solve priority #1. Im not back yet but as soon as I can, I will be. And I would vote for you!
The irony of people moving here and talk about how bad gentrification and house prices is.
Do you have a video comparing living in South Bay vs living in SF? I’m considering moving from San Jose to the city but it’d be helpful to hear from someone who’s lived in both places?
The Tenderloin has gotten worse during the pandemic entire streets are closed with homeless and drug addicts, it’s unfortunate. But I love living downtown because it’s just so convenient.
That’s why I’m still here too!
@@florencewadley is the poop is ONLY in tenderloin? And is emeryville consider the bay? and is there amusement park in the bay? Zoo? Is the BART a subway?
@@smileyyyyy1249 the poop is ubiquitous! Emeryville is over the bay bridge right next to Oakland it’s basically the same thing. There is an Oakland zoo and sf zoo. There’s an amusement park north of sf I believe as well as one that is south called great America.
@@smileyyyyy1249 Florence hit it on the head... Emeryville is basically a small town sandwiched by Oakland and Berkeley, most only stop there to go to Ikea...Great America is an amusement park in Santa Clara (next to Levi's Stadium). Then there's Six Flags in Vallejo. Most counties in the bay has yearly fairs (except SF of course) that usually run for several weeks and offer amusement type rides and vibes...SF has a zoo next to the beach, it's usually cold. Oakland's zoo is warmer and offers an overhead "tram" that offers amazing east bay views.
DRYGSGSGSGSGSS WE LOVE DRUGSGGSGSS😊
Thank you for this awesome video. I’m moving to SF in September so this was helpful. How did you go about making friends with poc? I’m from nj so so the lack of diversity makes me nervous
That’s exciting! Hmmm how did I do that....i would suggest joining YBSF if you can. Maybe join some college alumni groups that are in the area. Also Oakland has way more POC living there so perhaps look out for events or volunteer opportunities in that area. Good luck!
*SF is 7x7...even smaller than you think! ❤
Great video! Thanks. Columbus, Ohio USA ❤
Thank you!
I agree 100 o/o. but its still a great City on Golden Hills...you have great heart. im a New Yorker also a heck of a town!
Move out of the civic center area, for $3100 you can now afford a luxury apt in rincon hill , the east cut, south beach for even less.
Agreed
@@florencewadley Her problem is rent control. She's protected where she is, but not in a newer place built after 1979.
What part of Daygo I have lots of friends there ? How is the Mexican food in SF does it compare. I’ll be moving from la to there next year. I’m a RN
South Bay!! I don’t claim the Mexican food up here lol. The Bay Area is a lot of fun. I think you’ll enjoy it!!
girl, when you said you were plunkin' down 3100.00 for your place...I rocked back in my chair and almost tipped over. CHILD, PLEASE!!!!!.
🤣🤣 trust me. I know lol
Hi Florence. Thanks for this video. Can someone living in San Francisco escape the poop issue by choosing a different neighborhood? Or is the issue all over all neighborhoods? And which neighborhoods don’t have the poop issue?
As a local, that issue is only where there's a lot of homeless which is mainly in the Tenderloin, the Mission and South of Market. Most of the city is cleaner
2m47s "normal sized bedroom" = what in sq ft? thank you.
Have lived in SF for decades and basically agree with all of your points. However, having been lucky enough (or *old* enough...?) to have experienced it in the 80s and onward, the impacts of how much it has changed from an artsy, funky, diverse, affordable, place to the gentrified uber-expensive place that it is now is disheartening. I too live TL-adjacent and work in social services, not tech. That is a big challenge at times. I would advise anyone who is thinking of moving here to truly, carefully check out the rental prices before moving. And remember, that inexpensive room in a household that you see advertised might get scores of applicants. Rental prices now are no joke. Oh, and yes the Gay rights movement did pretty much start in the 60s/70s here, but as you know civil rights/social justice movements are ongoing and the LGBTQ+ movement is no exception!
Thank you for your comment! Love hearing from folks who have seen sf through the years 💜
love the video! new here! here from San Jose!
Thank you and welcome!
Most jobs are remote? Which jobs?
Hi!! I need some advice. Happy about any comment.
So I'm doing an AuPair year, I'm from Germany and have the choice of going to work in San Francisco (living in Noe Valley), or living in San Diego (Chula Vista Eastlake). As the cost of living doesn't make a difference for me as I won't be paying rent, which location would you chose for a year of living there? Location wise, what would be more worth it? I just can't really decide after everything I've read an heard so far...
Thank you everyone!
Definitely San Francisco! Without a doubt. San Diego is great (I grew up there actually) but sf is way easier to get around, and is more of a traditional city than San Diego is. If you love the beach tho, then maybe San Diego is the right choice…hope that helps!
@@florencewadley thank you so much for your advice 🙏🏼 I appreciate it so much!
I moved to San Francisco a year ago for work and still trying to figure it out.
Idk if SF is really somewhere people get super comfortable. I see it as a city to do a stint in and then leave to somewhere else. My stint is just lasting a really long time 🤣🤣
I can’t wait to get to get tf here. I’ve had it with the cold, crime and bs. Moving to La next.
I’m in that boring part 😩😩😂😂 I could definitely make a million pros and cons videos on Cali 😂 great video! Side note: stay safe next to the tenderloin 😩😩
Make a video!! 😎
Unfortunately, there is no San Francisco Museum to show how great The City was.
Fleishhacher Pool, Ewing Stadium, Playland at the Beach, Ocean Beach Sky Tram,
Seals Stadium, Millionaire Row Mansions next to the ex Flood Mansion. In addition,
the history of quarries, and Chinatown hidden spots are equally fascinating.
Even SF Cemeteries are not morbid fascination, but incredible history not found in
many other places in the world. SF waterfront has changed roles many times
over decades to provide great insights into the greatness that SF represents.
The Architecture is another super interesting topic. How SF went from art as
buildings to a mini Manhattan in just a few short decades. The loves are many.
The loath is the stupid retrograde politics and the enablers of crime and drugs.
Move to Toronto you could rent a whole house with that Price, no poop, dog parks, night time scene is fun always something to do! Clubs Beaches, Concerts, After Hours spots only con is Jobs are very skills based like you need experience or a good referal to get a good payong job but you definitely can get a regular paying job, lots of ppl so a lil noisy but very clean
We're visiting San Francisco now. We are looking for things to do (particularly while black lol). So I searched and found this video. Can't wait to hear your whole take.
Well dang.. this tenderloin area sounds very LA.... Which is where we currently live. It's crazy because as we've driven around for a few hours on our 1st day, our take on SF was that its very clean lol. We're gonna seek out this tenderloin area because it's simply not what we've seen in our 20 or so hours here.
It was cool to see Salesforce and LinkedIn headquarters. I use both daily.
We're visiting Oakland today. Hoping to see more to do.
That's how we feel about living in LA... very fortunate to live in such a known and celebrated place. Like we watch movies and shows now and they're ALWAYS mentioning LA sites and landmarks we know and can see or have seen. It's a really cool perk.
Amazing Video... Can u make a video how to get part time job over there.. Actually i am looking for...
I lived in the North Bay, Marin county Area on my own (outside the military) for almost three years. This was like from 1980 to 1983. I did one hitch in the coast guard. I didn't want to go back to Texas. So I stayed around. This was just before the Silicon Valley took over. If I lived there now I'd be homeless probably. I had a hard time handling the rent in Marin then. I thought about moving to San Francisco. The rent then was actually cheaper than where I was. It was even less expensive in Oakland. I was in SF all the time. I'd catch the golden gate bus across the bridge then jump on the Mccalister st. bus. McCallister st was in a black part of town. I am African American. I'd get a hair cut there. That area is probably paved over with gentrification now. I find it hard to believe that you criticize mass transportation in San Francisco. Compared to Houston, where I live now, mass transit in San Fran is fantastic. The city SF had a lot of homeless people then. I came back home to Texas and I would tell stories about the homeless in San Francisco. I guess now it has increased 3 or 4 times. Wow! That is hard to imagine. The tenderloin sounds like it hasn't changed. It was bad then. I missed the Bay Area a lot. The horror stories now make me glad I am in Texas. Now they are gentrifying the neighborhoods here. I guess that is progress. I don't know. I have not been back to California since 1984. I've forgotten what it looks like. All the Californians are moving here. Most of them come from Southern Cal. I've met a few blacks from Oakland and San Francisco. I keep hearing about poop in the streets of SF. Homelessness exists here, but it is not that bad, not in most parts of the city. Not yet anyway. I could say more. Maybe another time.
Well do you get paid well to compensate he cost of living ?
Yes so in sf the salaries are generally high especially if you work in tech to off set the high price of living!
$3100, whew Chile! However, Cali is worth it. I'm moving there if God spares my life Aug 2022 after finishing my Nurse Practitioner degree. The Bay area is my fave, but I may have to start in San Diego for 1 year to complete my residency program.
It’s insane!! Somehow I found a cheaper and bigger apt in the same bldg since this video. I have to admit that was lightning striking bc $3100 is pretty average. I’m from San Diego and think that’s also an incredible city - either way you’ll be good!! And early congrats on your degree!!!
Have you moved yet? How are things going?
Do you think the poop thing is commonly experienced in most all cities with a homeless population?
Not really. They have different laws and rules around homelessness. I think the poop issue is unique to sf and it’s policies
I've never once seen human poop on the ground in New York and we actually have housing for the homeless here... We're a fairly clean city for the most part, so based on what I've heard not comparable to SF IMHO. But I'll be in SF for the first time later this year, so I will find out for myself! :) Great video!!!
Sis been paying that big girl rent. (SF, SJ, Peninsula) 👏🏼
Lol I was but I just found a larger apt in the same bldg for $500 less per month woo hoo!
Hi,can a person survive in San Fran without a car or do you definitely need a ride? 🚗 🏙️
You can definitely survive without a car! I do everyday :)
I live in San Francisco, Hayes Valley and have lived in Japantown and inner Sunset. Also lived East Bay and Peninsula. I'm a techie, please don't hate me ;-). I agree tech has driven prices up especially housing. I've lived and traveled abroad. Many expensive cities have solved the housing crisis with social housing. Other than being expensive I love San Francisco, never boring with great culture and diversity including of the food. San Francisco is NEVER boring. Great weather and mostly friendly people. Housing is the biggest issue but I think the good out weights the bad. Poop is an issue mostly because of the homeless crisis which is somewhat related to the housing crisis but more complicated than that. There are substance abuse issues, and mental health issues including veterans with PTSD. Need to address the underlying issues of substance abuse and mental health issues. Simply subsidizing housing is not enough. Agreed about the economy very strong especially if you have tech skills. Remote working will probably help, those just coming to San Francisco to work will just stay home leaving SF to the die hard locals maybe lowering cost of housing?
Wow, that is expensive. What do you do for a living? How can you afford that rent.
It is 😩. I’m in HR.
How would you compare living in SF to Oakland? I can't decide btw the two
I prefer SF hands down! I “crave” Oakland from time to time but for everyday I enjoy sf :)
Oh wow I didn’t really answer the question lol. As far as key differences for me - Oakland feels slower and it’s more necessary to have a car there. Sf is faster paced and VERY walkable. I don’t have need for a car here. I also for me sf never gets old whereas in Oakland I did get tired of the usual places. Hope that helps!
We escaped California and moved to suburban Pittsburgh, PA ....we bought a 1200sf house for $20k and no poop !😱😁
@@mikewallin6049 but now you live in Pittsburgh.
AN HE it's a Beautiful city that normal people can afford to live in and still have a life...my uber driver owns his own house and in San Francisco doctors and lawyers are struggling.
I spent a few weeks in SF in August22 and its s***thole, how comes someone voluntarily moves there?
Sf is definitely on struggle bus these days!
How is the dating scene in SF?
I think it’s okay but expect to find a lot of people who don’t know what they want! Since sf is a big city a lot of people are passing thru for school or for job opportunities but have plans of leaving. Ultimately these folks aren’t looking for something serious but may not be super up front about that.
From the 40 years I lived in SF, 80% of the dog owners in this town are irresponsible in so many different ways
How so?
@@florencewadley She is pretty clear.
My family has lived here for generations. I have been all over this country and there's nowhere like SF. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.
Sf is pretty special, I agree!
Where can I get my hair done in San Francisco?
I’ve gone to Caraya Rose for years and also Madu Salon! You can find them on IG!
@@florencewadley Thank you so much. Loved your video.
We would totally meet up for ☕️
You said $3100 and I almost fell out! Sheesh, I better stay in Oakland and stack my coins for a lil min 😱
I know it’s nuts 🤦🏾♀️ I’d move but I don’t have another move in me until I buy a house lol
I had the same reaction!! LOL OMG so expensive!! :O
This is a fantastic presentation ,I just came across your channel and I found it very helpful and interesting .
I a black foreigner from Africa , I am a nurse and interested in working and living in san Francisco bay area and I love where I can be seen people of black colour like myself .
I would have chosen Oakland but I'm afraid of the level of crime in Oakland .
So I want to choose between san Francisco and San Jose .
Please in your opinion and as a someone who has been living in bay area and as a black lady which one of this cities will be highly recommended for me , consider job opportunities, cost of living and safety .
Your reply will be highly appreciated .
Thanks.
I would say sf and Oakland are both risky with regard to crime, especially now, so I wouldn’t use that as a deciding factor. For either city I would stay away from the highest crime areas. As long as you pick a “safe” neighborhood you should be ok in either city. As for job opportunities, sf definitely has the most! The cost of living right now is pretty equal but normally sf is more expensive.
Thanks so much my sister for reply
I so much appreciate it.
I will be contacting you in future to know how it goes .
The poop situation is like that in Seattle also. 🥴💩
Can you make a video on dating in San Diego vs San Francisco?? I feel like their is no black creatives that have done that and i feel like we always have a unique perspective lol
I miss SF/East Bay so much; currently stuck in Florida which I hate so much. But I'm almost done with NP school and can't wait to go back home to the Bay Area. Looking forward to the better pay for nurses in SF because Florida ain't it
are you born and raised there?
Oh gosh, I'm moving to SF this summer after many years in NYC and this freaks me out. The lack of diversity as well as encountering potentially segregated groups gives me pause. I'm very extroverted and friendly, and now I'm fearful I won't be able to find a good core group of people to hang out with. Yikes! Tell me it isn't that bad!
If you are extroverted and friendly, then you’ll likely have a good experience! Socialize with coworkers, get out and do things that interest you and I think you’ll fare pretty well. It’s not the easiest scene, but with some effort, I think most people can create a comfortable situation for themselves. Good luck!
I visited SF and was shook because I rarely saw black people and I was just thinking "where we at? are we in Oakland???" Coming from NY I wasn't used to it at all (east coast in general). Everyone was friendly though.
Yah Oakland but also other east bay cities. There are pockets of black neighborhoods in sf but not a lot and not in the most ideal places!
San Francisco is beautiful except it smells like urine in summer in to many places! I LIVED THERE FOR 28 YEARS and finally got out and so glad I did! GOOD LUCK TO THE NEW COMMERS!
Dear sister I would like to invite you on one of the tenderloin walking tours which I happen to be a part of so that you can see more of some of the good things about the tenderloin your camera past almost by my apartment there I'm on the left hand side of where you were but also engaging with all those people that you walked by with a probably a good idea
I loved this video - thank you for an informative video of the city now. I went to San Francisco in 98 - and I fell in looooove! I mean, OMG the views. But, i was shocked by the segregation. As a Brit, I had been expecting a mixing pot of peoples and it was not like that. It was so segregated - and in fact, we were warned not to go to x, y, z areas because they were "not white" and therefore "dangerous"! I was so shocked to be blatantly told that. We were shown areas and it was like "this is the Italian bit, this is the area the Russian's lived" and it was so weird to me. Overall though, I loved the ecletic vibe of the city, and how stunning the views were. I have heard since however the soul it had then is kind of not the same due to the insane amount of money the tech bro's brought to the city and the rapid gentrification. It's very beautiful though, and like you say, it was the history of the place and the fact that I grew up listening to songs about it, and TV shows with it in, that made it so iconic to vist. I had a choice between SF and NY and chose SF as my one dream holiday (it was expensive back then traveling from the UK so we only did it the one time). I love how you shared the pros and the cons in this video.
Amazing insight, thank you!
San Francisco has been a part of my life since the 1960's. I have watched the changes occur and the "gentrification" you mentioned has nothing whatsoever to do with race, specifically, the white race, it has to do with the Silicon Valley. If you are a techy, you have taken over the city and pushed everyone else out, regardless of color! I have not found it to be as dirty as you said, the Tenderloin is, for sure, but I have not experienced all of the filth you described in this video. It is ridiculously expensive, I will agree with that but that goes back to the takeover by the techys moving in and taking over, which is why I don't live there anymore. As for diversity, San Francisco is the most diverse place I have ever been and I have traveled the globe. The city, like most cities, is divided into neighborhoods but there is fluidity and people come and go between them without any problem. People are simply comfortable with groups they identify with so they tend to congregate together, that's very normal but you don't have overt racism there with strict segregation like you do in other cities. I love San Francisco and enjoy it every time I am there. It has a uniqueness to it I have not found anywhere else.
Thanks for sharing your opinion!
$3100!!! That’s insane! 🤯🤯
Agreed.
$3,100 a month for rent? You have my sympathy.
Yes, once the techies moved in from Amazon and Google, it was the end. Rents will never come down. People complain about the transportation because it was designed for a different time where money went further. People keep to themselves in this city and most of the old timers have left so new ones make the city now. So elect someone to spend the money to build the Muni system and pay the tax but will people in high incomes use it? They will have cars, most of them willing to pay tickets etc.
$3,100 for a one-bedroom apt?!?! That's wild
South SF is not part of SF, despite the name. Also, it's not 10 miles by 10 miles.
You right, it’s 7x7 my bad!
I was there visiting friends in November, I was not impressed with San Francisco, but I love the site seeing, and the wine country Napa.
Sf has seen better days I’m ngl
Stockholm syndrome is the reason for most of the love for San Francisco
Perhaps 🤔
@1:49. She says San Francisco is 10X10, BUT it is only 7X7.
Yes it’s 7x7….
LMMFAO... It's hilarious to see and hear the perspective of people who are not from here... LOL
3100?? HEEEEEELLL NAAAWWW. Do you know what you get for that here in Atlanta? Wow smh. I have to come work there in san fran for a yer starting this summer. ima just stay in my car lol
It's 7x7 miles. I'm a native.. I don't pay rent. I bought 35 years ago when it was cheap and it was expensive then. I can't stand SF anymore and won't go there any longer. I live in Fremont.
I almost forgot to breathe 3100 😂
I hate that I never see pretty educated black girls like you 😉 in SF
Aw so sweet thanks!
7x7 miles....
Blame SF politicians who make or pass the laws that encourage vandalism and homelessness in the Bay Area. Despite its problems, it is still way better than New York.
Dang. 3100 a month you could live a lot cheaper elsewhere
I def agree
I hope you buy your own property soon in a nice area. The rent you are paying is extortionate.
I'm scared so I pay almost 4grand lmfao
I’m aware it makes no sense 😫
Im watching and listening to this video and this lady is pretty is hell maybe I will meet you one day I promise you will be sprung and maybe me too alex a. DalyCITY CALI
You’re funny and cute
3,100 a month 1 bedroom those sidewalks better be made out of 24k
Yah they’re not. Far from it lol
@@florencewadley there’s more job opportunities for tech out there but damn that price is steep thanks for posting have a Great day !
I can't watch anymore after the poop discussion....thanks tho you seem amazing
3100 a month ???? Yeesssshhhhhhhh
I’m fully aware that it’s insane 😫🤣🤣
Damn, sis. You need to get away from the TL.
Buthole of The Bay.
I hate the traffic, and you guys drive so fast it's scary.
Oakland has been grossly gentrified.
Unfortunately
Honey I live in Jackson ville Rents 1500 To 2000 Rent Did you hear about inflation 12 ends 8 dollars were 3 Potetos 10 pounds 9 dollars were 4 You get it not only San Francisco do you think it is nice your comments I try to get people to visit move if you not happy
It's super cute how you can't pronounce eclectic. Adorable.
Leave before you get mugged or assaulted by criminals or homeless. The political leaders failed the once beautiful city.
