Why don’t we talk about how every city has an area with well built houses on a planned grid that could use a little fixing up but the productive citizens chose to live in the sprawl away from that area

SF doesn't have much of that type housing. I agree other large cities do but it is being gentrified pretty fast. There are huge sections of my city that were no-go areas and are now full of new condos, townhouses, restaurants and bars
