Having Tahoe so close is awesome as well…You can take ski buses which leave early in the morning, drive you to the slopes at first open, you ski and play all day, come back early/late afternoon and get home and can still have a nice dinner out after a shower…
I’m generally not a fan of San Francisco city itself, but the bay area, I feel generally has better weather (not as hot) than LA or SD (IMO) and as most people say, just a lot more amenities that people seem to value.
SD might get there if we had more companies coming here since we’re a lower cost alternative to the bay area as quite a few people here used to live there…We do have all the nice theme parks here, just need another QCOM or something here really.
