I am happy the author followed her curiosity. I remember feeling much the same “pull” when I moved to San Francisco in 2013.

Those of us who really vibe with the place seem to share a desire to get behind the city’s strange magic and discover the past souls and events that make San Francisco what it is - that make it feel this particular way that it does.

To the author and everyone else who has arrived here recently: welcome to San Francisco!

San Francisco is the amazing. Can’t beat the vibe and history of that city.

It’s the heart of Silicon Valley and the hippie movement. Essentially the entire US economy originates from the area, trillions of dollars. What slackjaw, red state, welfare queen town are you talking about?

The heart of Silicon Valley? Aren't you thinking of Palo Alto?

Not really but Palo Alto is a part of the SF metro region either ways.
