Well, the fact that people in Baltimore are so willing to travel such a long distance to DC only shows Baltimore really doesn't have much to offer. It doesn't change the distance. It is still a much longer commute compared to Oakland and SF.
In no way does that say Baltimore doesn't have much to offer, it just shows how much more it has to offer being that the NATION's CAPITAL is in it's backyard. I mean if DC were 50 min from San Fran, I guarantee that San Fran would be perceived as inferior and Franciscans would travel the distance as well. It would not be able to compete with the pull our nation's capitol would have in mutual area. But it would not take away from all the things San Fran would have to offer either. Let's b smart people.

Is there a cloud of delusion hanging over your head or what??
LOL
SF is often uttered in the same breath as Paris, Rio and Florence--DC who?
SF aside, are these three really ever mentioned together? Paris and Rio dwarf Florence and Rio is rife with violence in the favelas, the likes of which western Europe barely knows. Plus it's got the strong beach culture.

Ya know I considered putting Rome instead but since I put Florence I thought about somewhere different.

I'm from Baltimore and as I said earlier in this thread, I definitely prefer Baltimore to Oakland. But I think you're incorrect to say San Francisco can't compete with DC. Having spent extensive time in both, I definitely prefer SF. Yes, DC is more powerful and important as the nation's capital, but that alone isn't enough to make it the better city. Los Angeles has been bigger, more powerful, and much more important than San Francisco for decades, but that doesn't make it better.

This is flat out outragous!
SF gets more international tourist than DC by far. International - meaning they travel thousands of miles, spending thousands of dollars, for things that DC can't offer. It is amost always mentioned alongside Rio, Sydney, and Paris as among the most beautiful cities in the World. DC doesn't get a whisper.

Jeez - things DC can't offer?? As another poster claims - SF is an equivalent to Paris - LOL!!!
DC is the murder captial??? LOL. A lot of good humor going on in this thread. Obviously no clue whatsoever about what DC is today.
It's all good. I don't even want to waste the time to explain how a few of these SF posters are in major delusion of DC and especially of SF. Have you and a few of the others have ever traveled outside of SF?? Your posts prove that you haven't.
