I worked in Palo Alto for 3 years and while I love downtown PA very much, I would choose San Francisco over and over again for the incredible food scene.
I feel like the Southern part of city is perfect for people who need to commute to Silicon Valley but still want to live in the city, like Noe and Glen Park. If that's too far, Burlingame would be another excellent option. I've lived in both and loveeee both areas.
The main access road to Tahoe is I80 which EVERYONE from the Bay Area uses, not just San Francisco. Don't believe her when she says that SF has easier access. SF traffic meets with East and South Bay traffic in Fairfield. Nobody moves during certain commute times.
I have lived in MV and so has my partner who works down there, he still chooses to live in SF time and time again, his entire career will likely be down in the valley but to him, the commute is worth it. He has been so much happier since moving to the city!
@livinginsanfranciscoca My Metamates are buying homes, and relying on their equity payments to afford the mortgage. if earnings decline, they can no longer afford the payments. that is scary
@@livinginsanfranciscoca Cities that officially comprise Silicon Valley include San Jose, Menlo Park, Palo Alto, Mountain View, Cupertino, Santa Clara, Redwood City and Sunnyvale.
The valley of Silicon Or Semiconductor factories. Fact is except for Audodesk, there were no tech companies in San Francisco in the 70s or 80s. Only did in late 90s with some media companies. Also SV is a completely different culture. Nothing like the young 20 year old who do restaurant, wine drinking, clubbing in SF. These were workaholics of the 80s and 90s who were mature family folks.
The Bay Area has more tech companies than any place in the world with new ones starting all the time. I don’t see this changing anytime soon. The majority of talent wants to be in the Bay.
@kmoov90 Nvidia, Intel, AMD and many more chip companies and the ecosystem are thriving in the Silicon Valley. If you can't find a tech job here, you can't find it elsewhere. Only lower level jobs and manufacturing have been outsourced out of silicon valley.

What’s your favorite SF Restaurant?
Born and raised in the City, I will always love and promote my city from the air with my drones. Great video!
I really love neighborhoods in the city like Noe Valley that do still give you that suburban neighborhood feel, but still within the city
Exactly!!!

Agree! There’s a lot to love about Burlingame as well!
The really expensive parts of town (SF) have some great highly ranked schools.
Actually, some not so expensive parts of town have some great highly ranked Schools as well. Portola has an amazing one, Mira loma, sunset ect!
Problem is affordability. There is nothing to dispute about the greatness and beauty of the area
Both are great places to live!!!
Being from Vancouver, Canada, 67 degrees feels like t-shirt weather.
I love Vancouver! Such a beautiful city!

Humm-.......a quick look at a map will show SF is closer to Tahoe in proximity than the South Bay, which is what I was referring to.
You missed Nvdia, Intel, AMD, KLA, Applied, HP, Keysight, Agilent, etc... huge silicon valley companies.
@@striker44 thank you for adding!!! Hard to
Cover them all!
Many left Santa Clara decades ago. Soon as valuations crumble so will Nvdia and AI.
I have lived in MV and so has my partner who works down there, he still chooses to live in SF time and time again, his entire career will likely be down in the valley but to him, the commute is worth it. He has been so much happier since moving to the city!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! Just out of curiosity what neighborhood in San Francisco do you guys live in?
@@livinginsanfranciscoca We live in Noe Area so he can pretty easily hop on the freeway
After watching you I can’t help but feel as though I am in love. Every facet of my heart now gleams with your image! 💗🌹
...I'm pretty sure she's married. Check out her hand.
great content
Thank you for watching!!
biggest mistakes to avoid. buying your 3 million dollar home on your tech equity.
that income isnt garunteed.
Are you speaking of taking a margin loan against your tech stock to buy? If so, I agree that can be risky.
@@livinginsanfranciscoca no.
@@fatbubble123 I'm not sure I understand then. If the equity is sold and then they buy a house, then I don't see the risk there?

Wrong definition of Silicon Valley.
How do you define Silicon Valley?

There is no more "Silicon Valley" LOL. Most companies there are also thinking about leaving soon. Forget about Frisco that place is a disaster.
The Bay Area has more tech companies than any place in the world with new ones starting all the time. I don’t see this changing anytime soon. The majority of talent wants to be in the Bay.
@@livinginsanfranciscoca No not anymore. New ones? AI killed startup business LOL. It already changed you just don't know.

@kmoov90 keep saying it until you feel better. If you’re not from the bay then you don’t know what you’re talking about!
@@kalyanchakravarthy6015 I was from the bay but feeling a lot better, probably better than you 🤣How's the job cuts and high crime?
Is this unironic? Must be a grift.
