That's what Detroit said, circa 1940-1970.

Ostensibly unsustainable governance and policy manifests as unsustainable economics.


The median household income in San Francisco is $146k. Probably due to that GOP mayor in the 1960s.

Yeah?
$146K you say?
Well that sounds lovely.
Doesn't it though.

Unfortunately your $146K is juxtaposed against a cost index sitting at 190.

It’s incredible how much worse the place looks from just about 15 years ago.
That is my impression as well. I've been to Seattle many many times over the years. LightHeat notably left the thread without addressing specifics. Last time I was there I was even on edge at times in the Pike Place Market area. Sad stuff.

As it turns out, you can only live in one place at a time.
And you are CHOOSING to live somewhere else. Doesn't sound like it's so great after all.
