Miami isnt even a fraction of the cost of living as san Francisco :mjlol: not even 1/3rd. Its not just rent, its the ubers, doordash, parking, cost of food, gas. Its not even comparable.
Uber just as expensive, theres no public transportation in Miami. Parking is also expensive, groceries also expensive. Yall think florida is cheap??? lmaoooo

Cheap as fukk compared to SF

San jose easy to move around. No one with bread taking public transportation in sf. Sf is tiny, why would someone take public transportation to go a mile? Its only ubers and lyft so i dont even understand your public transportation point

Games definitely ain’t the same in SF. Lacob abandoned a great fan base and experience to cater to a bunch of nerdy ass SF transplants who see going to the game as something to do to post on IG as opposed to actually being fans of the game/team.

The Bay is past saving tho. It’s way too expensive out here for all the issues these cities have

California is the GOAT state. It's basically like if you had New York (Los Angeles), DC/Baltimore area (The Bay), Tampa Bay (San Diego Bay), Pittsburgh (Sacramento), Richmond and Hampton Roads (Fresno and Bakersfield)----->all in one state...

It's like having all these cities and surrounding areas in one state...

But SF has long marginalized it's black community and is one of the worst major cities for black people in America. I'm really trying to think of somewhere I've been, that I'd take SF over. I'd probably take SF over Boston, just for the fact I don't think I could put up with Boston winters, and Boston is also a place that the people aren't the most endearing. But it would be close...

If you're black, Sacramento has been better than San Francisco since at least 2010, Sacramento has been better than Oakland since 2015. If you're black and looking at NorCal, Sacramento is the way...


Man's know something 🤣...
You really keep trying to make Sacramento happen. Sacramento is an isolated suburb - no true city pulse. No depth of history like Oakland, SF, Berkeley. And it’s only 11% black, you keep acting like it’s a black Mecca or some shyt, Sacramento is basically “the bay is too expensive but I’m not ready to give up living in California”, nothing more

I live in Raleigh and I vehemently believe Raleigh and Charlotte are Top 12 cities for blacks in America, and I think many people are starting to notice both. But with that said there isn't anywhere else in NC I'd really refer anyone to...

Where in Texas are you? I think Dallas is dope, and I've never been to Houston but I've heard more good things than bad. Fort Worth aint my cup of tea and El Paso was garbage...

What DC is for black people is essentially what SF is for Asians. And The Coli hates California 🤣...

It's the GOAT state if cost of living was better...
California is the GOAT state as far as the terrain, but politically, COL, and racially, it’s trash. Virginia might be the GOAT state in those respects (I find purple state government to be more appealing than the Froot Loops we got running California into the ground)

I don’t want the show often but am not joking when I say Charles is slurring more than when I saw him last time. I know he has a drawl but this isn’t how he sounds most the time. I hope his health is ok.

Daughter guilt about aging parents…but being back, this area 100% is not the place I grew up and I don’t see it as a good place to raise my son.

DC is up there - I gotta evaluate my village in DC, Dallas, and Atlanta (and maybe LA). I don’t want to move where I don’t have close friendships, I’m too old to be building community from scratch

You cant get around in Miami without a car, Walking in Miami isnt a thing, its either expensive ubers or a car. No Bart or none of that shyt unless you live by the metroraio.
