What's wrong with the people in your opinion? I've heard the opinions of others, just curious.

I wanted to see more but my travel partner wasn't the most cooperative person. I didn't even get to Lake Washington.

San Diego is safe, however like you are with Seattle, I don't think it's quite as safe as some make it out to be. Berkeley has a fairly high crime rate by comparison although many of the perpetrators are from nearby cities (like Richmond...yuck). SD receives about 9.39 in. of rain a year.

Berkeley is a radical student town. A very turbulent hostile area in the 60's.
Richmond & Oakland are the worst I think they are competing against each other on who has the highest kill ratio as there is always a shooting or killing every weekend.

Check out my location. I'm there several times a year. I know what I'm talking about but I'm sure those in this forum don't care to hear about our Bay Area issues. Meet me in the SF forum if you wish to discuss this further.
