Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
I have been to SF a few times, and have not lived there, and wonder why people say it is so bad. The average hi/lo is higher than in Seattle and Portland, with less rain to boot. See table below, listing temperature in cities I have often visited. It may be windier in SF, and perhaps it has a lower windchill.
City Jan Ave Lo/Hi Precip. Portland 38/476.14" Seattle 37/474.81" San Fran 46/574.50" Sequim 32/472.04"
When I was contemplating a move to the Puget Sound, one place I looked at was Sequim. Being in the shadow of the Olympic Mountains, it enjoys drier climate and more sunshine than elsewhere around the sound.
Sequim is also fall asleep boring.
BTW, most people do not complain about San Franciso, which has been a magnet for people from all over America and the world for a very long time. SF knocking is just an E-R board pastime.
For me quick check on how popular or unpopular someplace is would be its real estate price/sq ft.
