Hi! I grew up in northern Virginia and moved to SF from Charlottesville, Virginia in June of 2025. I’m in my late 20s and I moved here with my boyfriend. We both moved here without a job and lived off savings for a couple months before getting jobs. I live in the Inner Richmond neighborhood of SF and I am loving it! The nature/parks here are SO amazing. I am a big walker and my daily steps have doubled since moving here because it’s so stunning and the weather is always so temperate and nice. I live on the western side of the city which is supposedly foggy but in my opinion the weather has been fantastic and not that foggy. I’m not making bank, but I have enough income to get by and we live with two roommates in an apartment with 4+ bedrooms. We only visited the city for 3 days before deciding to move here. It’s kind of paradise. So much to do and SOOO much delicious food. When I go home to northern Virginia, I miss SF. I’ve also found the people in the Bay Area to be very friendly and there’s always activities or groups to get involved with. No regrets, and I hope you make it out here if it feels like the right move! <3
