  • San Francisco, once a city of dreams, has become challenging to live in. In this video, I, Dan Williams, share why I decided to leave for good. From the alarming rise in crime and the unbearable high cost of living to the city’s unpredictable and often harsh weather, the challenges outweighed the benefits. I’ll take you through my personal experiences and the reasons behind my difficult decision.

    Before the pandemic, my family and me lived in San Francisco. Quickly we discovered that it is not what it used to be. Cost of living and a lot of businesses closing has made it unrecognizable. Thanks for your video it was very informative.🌹

    Can relate. I lived in NJ for many years and then left for the Bay Area for a job opportunity. Stayed 7 years and watched things progressively decline, particularly homelessness and crime. Was robbed multiple times, had my car stolen and never felt safe in many areas. I was constantly panhandled. Absolutely refused to use the BART. After COVID hit, I noticed a sharp decline in overall quality of life. That was enough and left for Florida. It's a shame as the city is visually spectacular and I made a lot friends there.

    Thanks, Dan. I also left the Bay Area just as the plandemic started and for all the reasons that you mentioned. Got out just in the nick of time.

      @@IndependentBlazers What about your redemption? You start your video in 1991 - then jump to modern day, You admit to being a lazy failure who was not prepared to put the work in to succeed in SF - So you quit long before SF quit on you. As a quitter and a dropout, as someone who ran away (who even gripes about the fog), you have zero credibility in any sort of discussion as to what ails SF. You have nothing to offer because you don't know. You're reading from a list any google search spit out. You're trying to justify your exit by dumping on SF - but you have nothing interesting to say on the matter as you're a quitter like you say. That's all this is about. Some sort of Freudian deep-dive into the psyche of a quitter.
