Very underrated city for remote work. One of the cheapest cities to live in CA, great lifestyle with Sac river, hiking, fishing, outdoor activities, one hour from Lassen National Park, one hour from Mt Shasta. And still only a three hour drive from the Bay Area for meetings etc. Growing business/startup scene too. Lots of young people with a number of schools bringing internationals through every year. Definitely worth checking out.

I just came back after 12 years, last time I lived in SF for 3 months in 2012. Back then it was a walkable and clean and fun, pretty safe city. The only place back then that you'd avoid was the Tenderloin. There was homeless but they actually weren't aggressive. There wasn't much robberies either. San Francisco in 2024 is very different, as you've probably seen from social media. The homeless problem has grown a lot since then, and they're not just clustered in the Tenderloin, they're all over

The city is great for business, also really stylish apartments, there's a parallel high society living in a bubble there and if you're part of it, live is way superior to what you would know from home.
