I’m leaving SF to go to Seattle because they changed the job on me but are paying me more than I ever have. I’m relocating to improve my finances temporarily but I really hope I can come back to SF. I’ve been here for over a decade and this feels like home to me.
Y’all got any of that sun over there tho? That’s the main issue. I have been there for all of two weeks and the lack of sun is real. I never knew how much the difference is until I went home for the holidays.
We have lots of sun in the summer (high latitude = 9PM sunsets, very little rain), not so much during the winter (early sunsets at 4PM, lots of rain). We are known for our high per capita sunglasses purchases.
I haven’t seen much poop (although sometimes neighbors throw bags of dog poop in my garbage can, grrr). Seattle attracts more homeless per capita than SF, although the problem is obviously not as bad in the winter as it is in the summer.
I live in San Diego and every morning at around 6 AM downtown There are people pressure washing the streets. I like to go for early morning runs before work and if I go any earlier than 6 AM it’s a mine Feild.
