What will San Francisco look like in 10 years?

[Long Duck Dong]

The owner of the largest hotel(and the 4th largest) in downtown San Francisco will stop making mortgage payments this year because they don't think crime, homelessness and the business coming back after COVID will get better anytime soon. Already half of the businesses in downtown have closed since COVID. 107 out of 203. 12 businesses have opened in their place but already 3 of those have closed since opening.

The violent and property crime index is higher in San Francisco than LA now.

F them. They deserve every bit of it

When you literally have a poop map in your city, there is only one correct answer. It will turn into one giant shit.

[Off the Court]

SF has the highest cost of living in the country. So if no one wants to be there rent and house prices will collapse and then people will be able to afford life and not be homeless, the problem will remedy itself.

That is how capitalism works.


My guess is that in 10 years SF will be very similar to what it is right now, a mix of extremely wealthy people and homeless addicts. No middle ground.

Here is a full walkthrough of downtown SF done just 2 weeks ago.

I don't think even you honestly believe that anyone who's paying rent or capable of buying a house in San Francisco if prices were slashed by half is going to be homeless or that any significant number of homeless are all of sudden going to going to start buying homes or paying reduced rents on homes that are even a fraction of the price they are now

There is a direct correlation between cost of living and homeless rate. Do you think it's a coincidence that SF has the highest cost of living?

Weather is also a huge factor. NYC has a similar cost of living but the winter is so brutal that homeless are forced to shelter or they die.

I voted for, It's going to turn into a shithole.

I hope Walk on Water gets the hell out of there.

[Patrick Chewing]

I had a feeling Off the Court would come into this thread and defend that miserable shithole city and state.

Not in Beverly Hills or in the suburbs of most cities.

The correlation isnt about cost of living, it’s about population density. Dense urban regions have enough people/services to support the homeless, and due to limited real estate in city centers also happen to be often pricey.

It has nothing to do with someone in an 800k penthouse getting priced out when it hits 900k and suddenly he ends up living in rags on the street

This is just rhetoric. I think you'd take back the bolded part if you could.

The biggest correlation is homeless flocking to areas where guilty liberals feel they need to support and tolerate excessive numbers of homeless. I forget the exact figures but Texas and Florida has shed around 25% and 55% of their homeless numbers respectively in the last 10 years With all the people moving to their states, the cost of living hasn't gone down

Edit: What Fultz said....

san francisco isn’t that bad. you guys are falling for the fake news

[Patrick Chewing]

The homelessness and the poop are fake??

San Francisco and a good part of the west coast has always had homeless people. It isn’t anything new. Where else in the country can you survive outside year long comfortably? There’s a reason why they end up migrating here.

The suburbs of those cities are gated communities. And they are usually hugging the polar opposite. Why are you talking out of your ass on this, you usual don't do that.
