Some details
Here is what I seem to have learned so far from the posts and what I saw this past weekend.
SOMA is much more modern and urban. However is seemed kind of dead at night (the places I looked at were around 1st, 2nd and 3rd & Folsom), was I just in the wrong area for things going on at night?
Russian Hill seems more neighborhoodish (like everyone has said) and I was staying out there with a friend in the general area and we walked to around to some local places that seemed fun.
I'll be working downtown (150 California I think), so SOMA would be much closer. I will have a car (that I need to find off street parking for) because I like to get out of the city to golf and have the freedom to just leave when I want to. Unfortunately the place I wanted in Russian Hill has rented so now Im faced with the prospect of going with a 2nd or 3rd choice which sucks. Finding a place from far away is really a hassle.
