There is one fundamental reason why I would never live in the city.
Parking…
Love my sibling dearly.. But out of all the years I lived in the Bay Area, and wanted to see my sibling in SF, I hated the fact that she shared a garage with someone else street parking around is frickin retarded. No way I would be able to lug around cars in the city. Stupid things like having to park on the side walk and roll the car a few feet after the 4 hr limit expired, or parking on the driving and leaving a note for others to call you in case they needed to get out.
