I buy that more people prefer SF weather to Detroit, but how is it the best in the US? As you go South along the coast you pass many places I think most people would prefer (ex: Santa Barbara [1]) and even as far South as LA weather is likely something more people would prefer [2].
(Personally I'm very happy with Boston and like having seasons and occasionally getting snow, but I recognize that this is a minority view)
Yea that's what I mean - the same is true in the SFBA. SJ/South Bay, Berkeley/Oakland/Richmond, the rest of Alameda county, the peninsula, etc are all quite different just like the San Fernando Valley, Inland Empire, Westside, and Orange County near LA.

Grandparent commenter here, yeah, this is why I also live in Boston. :P But averaging 70F every day year-round with consistently sunny skies is pretty appealing to those who don't need seasons to anchor their memories. It's the same reason why people will always choose to live in Hawaii, regardless of economics.
