SF neighborhoods are missing strong social fabric and welcoming vibes. I moved to Oakland after 7 years of stretches in the Lower Haight, Inner Mission, Outer Sunset, Outer Richmond, Cole Valley, Divisadero, and Potrero Hill, for a better sense of community. I love it here, but must admit I’m afraid to name my Oakland neighborhood for fear of (further) letting the cat out of the bag. I feel like SF is a sink for the forces that lead to social tension, and it protects Oakland somewhat in that way.
