“Why anyone would want to be a police officer in any city like Chicago, NYC, Philly, Houston, San Fran, LA is beyond me?”

While no one would argue that San Francisco is a nutball city, to lump it in with the other cities on your list would be a mistake if you are comparing crime rates. SF is a comparatively safe city, moreso now with the newly wealthy young people who’ve moved in after taking jobs with Google, FaceBook and other mid-Peninsula-based companies. These people have displaced the minority trash who lived in areas that were actually desirable places to live except for their former inhabitants. City-owned housing has been torn down and replaced with living spaces that rent for upwards of $4,000. per month. One of our daughters works for one of the major contractors there, and they are so busy that they can’t take on any more projects.
