I have a cousin who left SF in Dec 2021... he lived near Chestnut street, I forget the neighborhood name. It’s not far from all the hotels along the road that leads to the Golden Gate Bridge. He left because all those hotels took in the homeless, and brought a lot of crime including drug deals on street corners to his pristine neighborhood. His wife got pregnant and couldnt’ imagine walking her neighborhood in the day no less, with all the problems associated to those hotels. As far as I know, and I did live in the east bay for 25 years... that part of town was touristy but nice. So this report fits like a glove to what my cousin said.

Sounds like Lombard Street?

I just found this article. City Hall decided to sneak homeless people into some of the bigger name hotels. It figures.

Cow Hollow or the Marina...I lived there in the early 2000s and loved it. Can’t go back to see the disaster it has no doubtedly become.
