IT's not...it's one of the best and cleanest cities in the midwest...has a highly educated workforce...unfortunately, that doesn't translate to their police dept as we've seen.
Peace and quiet
Low crime because citizens would be well armed and willing to defend themselves
Community
People love their country instead of apologizing for it and being ashamed of it
Wide open spaces and clean air
Fresh and healthy food instead of city takeout and Trader Joe's
Falling asleep to the sound of crickets instead of police or ambulance sirens.
Plus you're unlikely to be prosecuted for self defense if the Democrat area even allows you to have a gun.

You support Trump who s a draft dodger so I do not buy your patriotism.
Trump has rolled backed all clean air acts so you are obviously fine with pollution. I guess as long as it is not in your back yard. Which again makes you unpatriotic.
Could go on but whyL
I think even democrats can agree San Francisco's decline absolutely sucks.
Then why is it still so expensive to buy a house there...if a place is a crap hole and nobody wants to go the there, wouldn't real estate values be in the tank? Yet SF continues to be quite expensive...simply because people want to be there.

But their Democrat mayor controls the police and the police chief is a minority. 2 of the 4 bad cops were minorities.
Detroit is a "failure" because it was a one industry (CARS) that Corporate America moved Auto jobs overseas.
Pittsburgh managed to turn around from a one industry city. They did it will solid dems who had a conservative streak according to this:
Quote:
Pittsburgh has been a Democratic city as long as anyone can remember, but it was a union town full of Democrats with a conservative streak, especially on social issues.
If these cities are all "failures" why are so many still growing?
Atlanta, Austin, Seattle, SF, LA, NYC, Chicago, Columbus, Minneapolis...none of these cities are losing population.
Because there is no shortage of stupid people in the world? These are the same sort of people who think social workers can replace a functioning police force.
Also, I believe places like SF and NYC are losing people. I am SURE that Minneapolis will if they have not already. Same with CHAZ-Land, formally known as Seattle.

Look through my posting history, genius! I absolutely DO NOT support Trump, nor am I republican.
I am voting for Biden, I would vote for Bernie Sanders over Trump. It goes beyond politics, I don't think he is fit for the job and is just a narcissist on an ego trip and has no business being in the office.
I live in Cleveland...never seen urine, feces or needles on most city streets...high crime is only in certain neighborhoods...no 'Autonomous Zones" here...Republican state government cut the funding for our mass transit, not the liberal city and county government...trash isn't everywhere...no defaced monuments because we don't have any monuments to confederate traitors...and after the first day of unrest, every protest in this area has been peaceful.
Me thinks you've never lived or even been to a big city if this is what you believe you'd find.
So because Cleveland doesn't have these things, no other big city does?
San Francisco doesn't have human feces in the street and an out of control homeless problem?
Seattle doesn't have CHAZ? Portland tried it but it didn't last long.
Who the statues are representing is not the point! If you don't like them you petition to remove them, you don't gather a mob with ropes and spraypaint and decide for everyone else if we should have them or not. That's what people do in civilized society? You're proud of that?
The city has jobs, so people live there, but Democrats won't allow housing construction so prices rise. Democrat policies ruin the quality of life. So you are forced to pay much of your income for housing and have low quality of life just to have a job.
