San Francisco is experiencing a ‘mass exodus.’ The city’s liberal policies are to blame.

San Francisco is experiencing a “mass exodus” as tens of thousands of residents leave the Bay Area while an influx of immigrants flood the sanctuary city, according to KPIX-TV.

What’s going on? For the first time in decades, more people are leaving San Francisco than there are new people moving to the city. The mass exodus has propelled the Bay Area to the nation’s leading city for “out-migration.”

One of the reasons for the exodus is the cost of living in San Francisco.

According to the Mercury News, the median price for homes in Silicon Valley fall anywhere between $800,000 to more than $1.4 million. That’s compared to the U.S. average of $206,000.

San Francisco has also become one of the most progressive cities in the nation over the last few decades, culturally and politically, meaning liberal policies rule the day. The city is also heavily taxed.

Cultural Marxism: destroying a successful civilization is the goal so that it may be taken over and the useful idiots, far from ruling, will be used as cannon fodder or the first into the gulags.

Just another example of what happens to a city when Democrats are in control. The entire state of California is also starting to see the Democrat decay.

Poo-poo

Parking tickets

Expensive rent/mortgages

But one more huge thing:

High SF hostility to KIDS. Really, really hard to bring up kids there.

SF has many more dogs than kids.

Are you a very high-earning, car-hating gay person who loves architecture and amazing restaurants..?

Then SF is for you; for ALL others it’s a pass.

You would be welcome here, Princess Leah. Liberals hate Kansas, so there are not many of them here.

At the end of the article, they admit that the inflow is slightly greater than the outflow.

Here's a Powerline blog article about an amazing series of Twitter posts describing how the San Francisco police avoid dealing with auto theft.

The basic message of the article is correct, but there seems to be some confusion - San Francisco is not part of Silicon Valley. Silicon Valley is the Santa Clara Valley, some 40 miles south of SF and vastly different in terms of weather, terrain, architecture and mindset. Both areas suffer from high housing prices, though.

You’re welcome here but don’t bring anyone with you. We’re trying to keep this place a secret.

And the rats will bring their disease to their new homes.
