If you like cold-ass weather, go with SF. Mark Twain said that the coldest winter he ever spent, was the summer he spent in SF.
One thing that i know is that they are very different places. People that like LA generally hate SF, and vice-versa.
I suppose that the climate is the feature that i like least.

They might as well be on different continents. They are that different.
SF is not that big of a city, pocket neighborhoods, great mass transist, small funky bars and restaurants, hippies, punks , business folks all seemingly getting through the daze together. It's also not warm and sunny by CA standards
LA is much more spread out and faster paced. Creatives tend to be in media rather than agency type jobs. Climate is much warmer but the air can get thick in the summer.
Neither are cheap to live in. Don't flip a coin on this one, they are far from interchangeble.

I hear people in LA are backstabbers where as in NYC, they tell it to your face.

I've lived in both. Each one has its own jewels and turds. I miss SF now that I am in LA, But I missed LA when in SF. Sf Is way colder and I just decided I had it with the weather. Plus I couldn't get a nice place to live without a lot of cash. Yes LA is now the same but I found more Oppurtunities in LA than SF.
Also as for rumors of how people act in either, how bout people are fucked up period. No matter wherre you are. But if you live your life right, other good people find their way into your life. And yes I have good people in both locals. As for the posers, well if you know too many posers, tyhen maybe you need to rethink your circle of friends.
my 2 cents. Holla back.

Grew up in SF and live in LA. Prefer to visit SF and live in LA now. Only prob is the amount of people here. 35 million peeps from San Diego to Santa Barbara vs 7 or so million in SF.
1 in 5 Americans live in California, one in 8 live in Southern California.
Killputer watches too much american idol and assumes everyone is a desparate and balding actor, with a vacant paris hilton clone for a girlfriend. I suppose those people do exist here, just as sr citizens and retarded people. but so what? are you looking to befriend 100% of any population?

my gf's getting into photography. would either city be particularly better for her career? so far, based on her research, there's more schools (art institutes in SF) so perhaps there more assistant positions there as well?
she likes SF more for the urban environment, i like la for surfing... hmmm...
thanks for the info btw.
