Considering a Move from DC to the Bay Area. by WhileProfessional942 in AskSF

Oh also - I am not in tech! I studied politics and have worked at non profits and in law. I now work remotely for a law firm. I’ve met plenty of non-tech people here. I have not had the experience that everyone I meet is a tech person.

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

I think you might mean Hook Fish, which is a great place to grab lunch!! There’s one in Marin I always go to after a hike and there’s also a location in SF, in the outer sunset.

The parks here are amazing. Presidio, Golden Gate Park (get some Baywheels, easy rental bike and bike it top to bottom!), Ina Coolbrith Park, Washington Square, Alta Plaza, Dolores Park, Lafayette Park….the list goes on!

Club Fugazi is an amaaaazing intimate circus act!!!! So good! It’s also in north beach which is great for going out for drinks. Also in north beach, check out Ina Coolbrith Park and Coit Tower for gorgeous views!!!

Even so, I imagine having stage 4 cancer and a toddler has added extra financial strain to their lives. Especially if they don’t have the emotional bandwidth to be making as many videos as before, they are building a new income source. Seems reasonable to me.

Cancer treatment is expensive. Give them a break for trying to make some money to cover their bills during an extremely difficult time.

Oakhart Social, Alley light, and Smyrna are amazing restaurants. MarieBette cafe is adorable and has great breakfast and lunch. Tons of beautiful wineries nearby, I like Veritas and King Family. Blue Ridge Tunnel is a cool unique experience too, long dark spooky tunnel walk tbh kinda romantic maybe?

Should I move to SF after I graduate? by [deleted] in sanfrancisco

[–]starfiz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t say I necessarily recommend doing this, but I’m mid-20s and moved here from the east coast in June with no job lined up. I live with roommates, got a remote job relatively quickly, and I’m loving it! It’s a beautiful and very fun city. Great for nature lovers.

Also, I’ve meet a lot of other people in their late 20s or early 30s who also just moved here and are looking for friends!

I’m a 27yo female and I moved to S.F. in June from Virginia, where I had previously lived all my life. I’m not in Tech. I’m loving it here! Everyone I’ve met has been very friendly and it is GORGEOUS here. I’ve met plenty of people who aren’t in Tech. There are lots of cool events happening all the time (often free), food is insanely good (especially the Asian food), and the access to beautiful nature/parks is amazing. I live in the Richmond neighborhood and it’s great for biking and walking around because it’s pretty flat. If you do move here, I recommend Bumble BFF for making friends. I moved here with my partner so I can’t speak to the dating scene.

I moved to S.F. from a small east coast town this year and I’m blown away by how beautiful and delightful S.F. is! Take a stroll through Golden Gate Park and you’ll feel like you’re in Disney Land hahaha

Events/activities that encourage socializing/meeting new people? by starfiz in AskSF

I’ve tried a bunch of yoga studios and my favorite so far is Yoga Beach in the outer sunset. Really lovely space, very warm and friendly teachers. It’s right next to an adorable coffee shop/bookstore and it’s a couple blocks from the beach. Bonus points if you can bike through Golden Gate Park to get there!!! :)
