A lot of people think they know San Francisco. And while all of these stereotypes have a bit of truth to them (some much more than others), they’re not representative of everything that makes this such a fascinating, bustling, diverse metropolis. Here are some San Francisco stereotypes we’d like to prove wrong.
- Everyone is a techie…
Scott Beale / Laughing Squid

- …or a hipster…

- …or a trust-fund kid…

- …or vegan…

- …or gay (although SF Pride is the absolute BEST).

- We all hate L.A.
