Depends on which complaints youre referring to, theres way too many to just issue a blanket statement like that LoL
There are absolutely parts of the city that are infested with homeless drug addicts and all the crime and filth that come along with that, I admit I was shocked when I saw that the area around 16th and Mission was now literally a 3rd world favela homeless encampment to the point where you couldnt even drive down the street anymore, it was a burnt out tent city in the middle of a major street in the heart of the city
But theres also a lot of beauty, culture and amazing sights and history all over the city too, SF is a city with a rich and storied past and the residents love to celebrate that part of it everywhere you look
As far as being insanely expensive, like Middle East oil baron level expensive, yea thats absolutely true, theres a lot of wealth there so theres lots of glitz and glamour to enjoy if you qualify for the entrance fees
If youre asking about the queer stuff, yea thats there too, but the flat out naked debauchery is contained to certain sections and certain weekend celebrations that are east to steer clear of
Dont ever leave anything visible in your car cause your window will get shattered in seconds, sometimes while youre still in the car stopped at a red light
So, in conclusion, a lot of the bad stuff is definitely true but theres also a whole lot of great stuff there to enjoy at the same time
The dive bar and live music scene in San Francisco is pretty legendary
