Moving to SF?

I write it like I mean it, but mostly they just want my money.

I'm thinking of moving to San Francisco. I am without employment right now, and wish to move to a major metropolitan area for the economic opportunity. I don't really have a "field" (and don't want one, but that's a different issue) so my attraction is more for "cultural" reasons. As a raving left-wing bleeding-heart liberal, I thought I'd fit in better there than in Jackson, MS. In addition, I have a "free" place to stay with family in Santa Cruz for a "while" (you know how that works) to scope the scene.
The thing that worries me is that the freely licentious nature of clubs such as Mitchell Brothers' O'Farrell Theater would suck me in. I'm already an "extras addict" and that was something I had hoped to avoid. (I was doing well living in Jackson. There aren't any decent clubs or extras available here.)
What do you guys think? I don't really intend to make major life decisions on the basis of this internet board (har) but I would appreciate a little input. About 10% of my choice will be made on "sexual addiction" issues, I think.
Also, Santa Cruz is a long long way from San Fran. Not commuting distance unless you're megalomaniacal.
