Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem underrated.
I've been here 12 years and the quality of life is solid. The thing nobody mentions is pet-friendliness. It's developing and it affects daily life more than you'd think.
That said, the job market is legit. And if you're into surfing, this place is pretty good.
Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Sunset side vs the Riverside side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.
