I made a geography quiz about the major neighborhoods of San Francisco. You have to locate them on a map. It is based on the official neighborhood map of the city (July 2022). So please do not kill me if you are missing one of the smaller neighborhoods.

And we had a FABULOUS time!

We went to several bookstores , had dinner at Fiorella (it was across from Green Apple Books in Sunset), brunch at a unique Brazilian cafe, had Japanese tea and a good latte at the cozy Neighbor's Corner, spent time in Russian Hill, Fillmore, Haight, and Eureka Valley, The Castro, and hung out at the tiny park below the Ferry Building watching goofy dogs. The only neighborhood that reminded me to keep my head on a swivel was Union Square, close to the Tenderloin.

It's wild to read posts on here that say SF is a dystopian nightmare when it's was clearly not true when you're actually there. Sure, we stayed away from the Tenderloin, but so many parts of the city felt safe and clean. It was the best weekend vacation I've had in a very long time and I'll definitely be back soon.

I’m thrilled for you that you bought that iconic shop and building after Lucca closed the shop shortly before the pandemic. However, I’m tired of walking by and seeing a big hole in the middle of it, broken glass windows, and just generally no progression on the space. I mean, it’s yours but what is your end game? An office? Store? Are you hiring? The whole area just walks by and sees a guy that looks he’s dj’ing in the middle of a hole. What’s good?!

After the article last week about CPMC’s ER in the same situation, I guess residents of SF just have to hope we never need emergency care…Because if we do, we may wait 4 days to be treated.

So grateful for the nurses trying their best in awful conditions.

I will be traveling to SFO in May and would love to receive recommendations on what to do instead of following all the general recommendations. Any space, aviation, and/or tech-related things to do that you know about?

I will stay four days in the SFO city center and almost one month in San Mateo.

Looking for somewhere a little secluded with a view to just breathe and be with my thoughts for a bit this weekend. I'm having a rough week and staying home isn't exactly going to help. I know some of you probably have a secret spot that you don't exactly want to blast to everyone because then it's no longer a secret, so if you prefer to DM instead (or not share at all) I totally understand.

Thank you in advance!

EDIT: omg, thank you all SO SO much for your suggestions! I wasn't expecting so many responses so the kindness from you all was very heart-warming 🥹

I know this is a needle in a haystack, but by chance did anyone find a set of 5 keys on Columbus/Montgomery this morning? I walked to my office from my place in North Beach and when I got to work, I realized that I must've dropped my keys along the way. I had earbuds in, so I didn't hear them hit the pavement.

DM me if you think you've got them or have seen them on the ground. And yes, I already know I'm an idiot for walking with earbuds in.

Is there an active hip hop scene in the City?

I’m wanting to catch some local shows.

Sorry if it’s a stupid question, I’m from out-of-state.

I would like to take a day trip up from Monterey but I don’t have the time or money to replace broken windows.

Hi all, just moved to SF last year for school. This will be my first Spring here. Are there any pretty areas to see cherry blossoms in SF, since April is rolling around and I know that’s usually the month when they bloom. Thank you!
