I have to say this sub is probably one of the nicer subs I have been in. I get it is smaller, but still the people on here are chill and I would say mostly levelheaded. Is Silicon Valley similar? I know the Bay Area is a large area, but I am just curious. I will say that I enjoyed San Francisco for the day trip I took from Sacramento, especially compared to Seattle. No offense to any Seattlelite, but it felt like I left the US almost, whereas with San Francisco it felt like part of the US, even with different politics compared to other parts of the country. I would like to visit other areas and might visit on my Bday to get a better overall view.
