For a lot of us, the only undesirable aspect of SF bay area would be rent and housing costs.

Everything else in the area is of the highest quality. SF bay area scores high on weather, food, pollution, average quality of schools, average quality of people, crimelessness, lively cities, international educated people, jobs, vibrant societies, vibrant economies etc.

Housing is a major cause of all remaining evils there. Besides that, life is pretty good tbh.

I'm not sure I agree with quite a few of those points when you look at the "SF" part of "SF Bay Area". Sure, Woodside and Moraga are top tier quality of life if you can afford it, but half of SF is essentially Gotham city.

YMMV, but the local culture is a lot less friendly than some other places. Not that NYC is necessarily better.
