living in the tenderloin (SF), I wish there was a little more gentrification.
it gets annoying walking up the street everyday being offered all sorts of drugs, watching people smoking crack and generally pissing/shitting on the streets.
on the plus side, we have some fucking awesome dive bars that don't cost an arm and a leg for a beer (although you might loose said arm/leg on the way home)
I grew up in the country/small town in Northern California. I escaped to SF when I was young. I remember walking up Leavenworth (in the Tenderloin) for the first time trying to get to Golden Era* (RIP). A dude asked me if I wanted an "outfit". I said "no" as I felt I looked pretty good, and I didn't trust his sartorial taste.
Cool story eh, bro?
*Vegan vietnamese restaurant. semi religious cultish. good lemon 'chicken'.
