Please enlighten us.

Oh, here is what the locals think:

San Francisco quality of life declining? 70% in poll say yes

And this:

Businesses Are Fleeing California. Blame Bad Government. - Bloomberg

I don't have to visit North Korea to know that it would not be a good place to retire.
Is there a city anywhere in the world where the quality of life has improved and the crime rate has gone down in the past few years? Maybe Wildwood, but only the Villages part.

I can't get past the Bloomberg paywall to read that link, but the survey in the other is suspect, being funded by the very business oriented Chamber of Commerce.

My point was that homelessness is a problem all over the US, it's just out in the open out west and people are trying to do something about it (maybe not very well). Just running people out of your town, so you can claim some sort of purity is not addressing the problem at all.
