This article was also published on the Epoch Times on February 27, 2022. San Francisco looks worse than I’ve seen it in my lifetime. Typically, like any city, San Francisco had bad areas. Those rough areas you knew to avoid, but could go anywhere else basically unmolested. Today is something entirely different. The streets are dirty. Homeless encampments, trash, and excrement can be found all over. Car break ins are so frequent that it has basically become a non-government imposed tax for people who come here. Of course, some areas are much worse than others, but almost all areas of the city suffer from this decay and it is appalling.
Whether SF recovers is a question I have been asking. Way to address the potential consequences of the end to easy money.
