UptownAlmanac<\/a>:<\/p>\n

I found myself at a friend’s Upper Haight birthday party last weekend.\u00a0 He’s a fairly normal dude: he drinks liquor by the bottle, is totally broke, has a few tattoos, is an aspiring filmmaker, rides a motorcycle at excessive speeds with a suspended license, and has no fear when it comes to igniting various explosives in urban areas.\u00a0\u00a0A true San Franciscan<\/em>.<\/p>\n

He also happens to live in the Upper Haight. How he got there is not important, but we can all agree that moving into a room in an Upper Haight home is some cheap San Francisco living that doesn’t have you riding the N Judah to work from the Outer Sunset.<\/p>\n

It had always been my opinion that he and others represent modern Haight residents.\u00a0 Sure, they have to walk over migratory gutter punks on their way to buy Captain Crunch, but the people who\u00a0actually<\/em>live in the ‘hood could fit in anywhere around town, they just happen to live in the Haight.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Worth a read as it certainly lets anyone know that is interested in moving San Francisco how the majority of people there live. Also, I’m glad I moved out of San Francisco. I’ll move back if I can afford one of those SoMA high rise condos and enough money to avoid parties like this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"UptownAlmanac: I found myself at a friend’s Upper Haight birthday party last weekend.\u00a0 He’s a fairly normal dude:…\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","apple_news_api_created_at":"","apple_news_api_id":"","apple_news_api_modified_at":"","apple_news_api_revision":"","apple_news_api_share_url":"","apple_news_cover_media_provider":"image","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_cover_video_id":0,"apple_news_cover_video_url":"","apple_news_cover_embedwebvideo_url":"","apple_news_is_hidden":"","apple_news_is_paid":"","apple_news_is_preview":"","apple_news_is_sponsored":"","apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":[],"apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_custom_appearance":"","csco_disable_excerpt_posts_layout":false,"csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"_jetpack_hide_featured_image":false,"_jetpack_featured_image_duplicate_dismissed":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2594","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-linked","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pb3IC4-FQ","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":347,"url":"https:\/\/adamchandler.me\/blog\/2009\/06\/04\/one-year-in-san-francisco-where-to-live\/","url_meta":{"origin":2594,"position":0},"title":"\u2605 One Year in San Francisco: Where to Live","author":"Adam Chandler","date":"June 4, 2009","format":false,"excerpt":"I\u2019ve responded to over a dozen emails from future SF residents asking me where they should move.
