- lack of affordable housing with a garden where my kid can play
- traffic
- airport traffic is flying above residential areas, so even when you find something affordable you have to check
- affordable creche for my kid
- SFO is one of the worst airports to arrive from abroad

Interesting - I find it a lot better than a number of other large US airports. While the immigration queues aren't great they're better than JFK, EWR, IAD, LAX, DFW, ORD and much better than YYZ. And you usually can just hurry past a lot of the other flyers, to get at the front of the queue. And departing the security queues are less bad than a lot of other airports too.
These days I've global entry, making this less painful...

Good to know, LAX was ok, no experience with the other airports. It might just suck to be a non-US citizen trying to enter the country.

I have regularly spent multiple hours in the non-US citizen queue waiting to be admitted to the country.
