Back in the 50s the beats hung out in North Beach because it was cheap. In the 60s and 70s the hippies all had old victorians out in the Haight Ashbury because it was cheap. San Francisco wasn't some obscure fly-over country place, it was a cool place to be.

Where is cool + cheap now?

Are those kind of people busy hanging out on youtube now?

Are there enough creatives in meat-space to attain the critical mass necessary to generate those places like in the past? Or are many of them staring at their phones all day?

We aren't ready collectively to confront these types of truths about the new way of life we have slowly settled into over the last 10-20 years.

I bet you can pick out almost any medium-sized city and find some "cool" neighborhoods that are pretty affordable.
