Writer, blogger and cartoonist Sarah Cooper used to call New York City her home. But now she's in San Francisco, and as she's since discovered, the two places are painfully alike when it comes to real estate, with SF actually more untenable for renters than NYC. (According to Zumper, the "City by the Bay" has consistently topped the list of most expensive rental markets for 10 straight months.)
