Dude what are you talking about.
Point to where you was at on a map.
Interior Bay, where 90% of the population lives, was specifically the word choice earlier. We have microclimates out here. Certain geographical features and proximity to the ocean shape (for better or worse i.e. San Francisco) affect everything.
Like @sfc415 once you get to suburbia on the other side of the East Bay Hills range, you're talking a minimum -10 degree temp drop at night and a +10 temps during summer days.
"Tunnel" rats staying out that way deserve to freeze and sweat anyway, but it's still top pickings in the country.
But Oakland? Any of the mid-major cities along the Bay inland? Again, one of the most liveable climates in the world. Living here will make you so so soft when it comes to dealing with anything less than B+ weather on either end of the thermometer.
Completely agree
Ive lived in LA, Boston, NYC, Santa Fe NM, DC, and now the Bay Area and this place has made me soft.
89 degrees is now too hot for me and 65 degrees makes me shiver

Hated living in NYC. Like with a passion
I already hated living in the city, but my time in NYC sucked hard.
Have had chances to move back, passed on all of them

All beach. Nothing like speeding up Biscayne on the jet ski looking at the skyline.

Sounds boring to me.
Would rather be chilling on a beach in Phuket watching the sunset. Better women too.

Miami is cool. I think the Latin/Black women alone would have me favor it over Phuket.

I didn't see the appeal of Miami everytime I went there. It's humid and it's STILL Florida. You will run into some Florida type sh×÷ eventually.

Atlanta funny man. I have a good time everytime I go but everybody just always “on”That means don’t go anywhere
I swear I went to brunch at “Chef’s Up” (a restaurant) them folks were living their best life on the Grams - dressing like they’re going to a Super Bowl after party at 11am
It’s like this at the HIT museum too on First Friday.
It’s not really the places - it’s the mentality and persona. If you talk to some of these people, they make themselves seems more than what’s really going on.
like somebody said tho you just gotta be tapped in before you call somewhere overrated.

Yeah being a residence during my middle school and part of high school. Then coming back in 2003. Been here since. The dynamic of Atlanta as a whole, changed.
Totally overrated and now becoming overpriced.

I use to think Orlando was overrated but I realized it was just the people I was with that trip, enjoy that city now.
Personally, Vegas.
Never been but I heard overrated: LA.

I mean if you purposely ignore the reasons why, sure.
But I'm sure you know why people go crazy for Miami.

DC. Gentrifiers have sucked the soul out of the city and replaced it with cookie cutter apartments and 1000 beer gardens, dog parks, and under seasoned “fusion” food 
.
I don’t understand the beef with Miami. Anyplace that’s warm, with half-naked women and good food is solid in my book

New York is most definitely commercialized to the point that if you have the mind of a tourist, you'll definitely be disappointed. Our saying had always been, if there is a ton of white people there? Then it's already played out. To see so many white people milling around, and then living in areas of Brooklyn that they dared not to ever mention back in the 70's and 80's? Boggles the mind, witnessing gentrification moving out people who lived in these areas for more than a decade, who now cannot afford to rent out a basement in East Flatbush. I saw a white girl jogging down Church Ave the other day in her little shorts and jog bra, and I almost spit out my Sorrell.
That said, the most overrated city I have even been in is Sausalito. Nice homes, dead people.

Is this of just preference?
Ya boy spoke highly of da Heights.
Some people are built for different areas.
Like I dont mind living in Cincinnati yet others would probably kill themselves.

Paris hella overrated
Still trying to understand why yall say Miami is overrated. Are things overpriced and there isn't much to do?
This MILF I used to mess with, her daughter moved there last year and swears it's better than NYC
