In San Francisco, Monica Burton, who now commutes from Sacramento, plays with goddaughter Zaria Ivory, Ajianah Daniels and granddaughter Tyria Burton. At right, Misty Richmond pushes a baby near the Golden Gate Bridge.

This same story can be told about Chicago, Seattle, New York, Boston, etc. Cities of DINKs and SINKs.

Gee, when you fill an entire city with child predators, of course any respectable parent will get their children out of harms way. Kick out the gays and watch the families move back in.

I sold my home in Orange County a few years ago for almost a million dollars, took a job in Calgary Canada, bought a house a little better for about $400,000 (US), went laughing all the way to the bank.
Paid about $250,000 in the mid-80's... always felt like I paid too much
I even told the family that bought the house they were f--king insane.
If dying with a mortgage is your dream, enjoy suckers.

On the East Coast, a similar trend is underway, with middle-class families fleeing the New York region and Boston for the South.Hey, we resemble this remark!

Sending you child to Public School in Seattle amounts to child abuse.

Burton ... "Leave It to Beaver" neighborhood in Sacramento, a 158-mile round-trip commute from her job in (San Francisco) This woman is a fool and an idiot. The move does not make economic sense, let alone practicality.
158 miles, each day??
Assume 18 mpg --->> 8.8 Gallons per day
Assume 2.59 $/gal --->> $22.79 $/day
Plus bridge tolls ---> $6.00 $/day
$29.00 $/day x 5 d/wk x 4.16 wks/mth = approx. 600.00 per month just to get to work!
Plus wear and tear on her car ---> 158 x 5 x 4.16 = 3,280 miles per month!
She passed over: Vallejo, American canyon, Fairfield and Suisun. All of which are almost as affordable as Sacramento and about half the distance (Vallejo/America Canyon).
She did not need a "Leave it to Beaver" neighborhood, but maybe a George Jefferson one would have sufficed and she would have saved money and time.
with:... Zaria Ivory, Ajianah...Tyria
And those names are not going to help those kids much to change their lot in life.

"where did all the children go"
Aside from the suburbs - I'd check the trash cans in back of the abortion clinics.
