Be safe: My wife and I have been to SF twice. The first time a bar fight spilled out into the street while we were walking to church at 9am on Sunday morning. One of the guys pulled a knife, but someone talked him down before there was any blood spilled.

The second time my wife was about 20' away from a shooting near the convention center.

I am sure its a great city, but I haven't had the best experience there.

I've found the city to be hugely disappointing, but compared to NY and London it is substantially smaller (maybe that's why). There are only ~800,000 people there.

Third time is the charm. I have no doubt these things happened, but they're not usual.
