San Francisco.

Why does a place need to be like another place? SF is unique. Not my favorite city but it has it's charms. I prefer Chicago.

Totally agree. Was going to post almost the same thing the one thing I don't like about Seattle is the vegetation period driving along the freeways and into the outskirts, it seems very dark and forested, even alongside the highways. Definitely has a more Northwestern feel while San Francisco is more colorful

Cork!! With its hilly terrain and huge harbor, it definitely felt like SF.

Yes! Cork City totally reminds me of SF! I'm surprised you mentioned that! I also thought Vancouver, Canada also of SF.
