Dress code and decorum is a bit more relaxed, personalities are just as intense but more on the nerdy than the preppy side, hours are just as long (but usually less of a face time culture), replace golf culture with hiking/skiing culture.
If you want relatively chiller and more relaxed IB culture, LA > SF, but imo as someone who lateraled from NY, SF > NY IB culture.
