I totally understand why you asked this. I think it was a good question because i've heard the same stereotypes.
I hope there are some good guys in SJ for me to meet :]
How is SJ for teenagers? It sounds like it's going to be all business men... |

Don't believe the hype. There's over a million people in San Jose, 1.8 million in the valley. Plenty of variety.

I don't understand this comment, San Jose doesn't have a particularly high ratio of men to women, not according to the census bureau anyway. |

It's above 50% men so people freak out. If you walk down the street, though, it's not like Smurf Village or anything. |

Well, in that sense, we are Smurf Village! I had to ignore that when originally making my point, though. |
