While the cost of living is high, he feels safe and accepted and plans to stay in San Francisco. I'm a 36-year-old building manager, and I've lived in San Francisco for almost 13 years; I moved here in August 2010. I don't think I can go out in San Francisco without dropping several hundred dollars in a weekend. This discussion is creating a self-fulfilling prophecy and a doom loop that discourages people from investing in San Francisco. I would rather be poor in San Francisco than rich in Florida.
