I've lived in the US since 1986, mainly in SF, but for a few years in Sacramento, San Bruno, Belmont and San Carlos.

The people who have "taken over" in my experience are mainly very conservative Asians, like me.

Yes, I'm a republican. I think SF is at least 25% Republican in registration.

The main problem for families in SF is that the houses and lots are very small, the lots being laid out back in the 1880's-1890's, and built out with small row houses from 1920-1940 mostly. So its hard to find a large house with a yard, and if such a thing existed it would be very expensive. So this is not a matter of politics.

Thanks for your candor. I would imagine that your own personal situation may therefore filter the impacts of SF's social decline on your own experience. I agree that Asian immigrants are one of the few positive trends in the City. Unfortunately, even the most cursory review of the political structures of SF and the Bay Area in general reveals that it's Leftist whites, and their various Leftist indoctrinated "lapdogs of color" who define the sociopolitical atmosphere here. Folks like you and I do not have a seat at the table and are marginalized. That's the essence of my own anger and why I wrote the things I did. Indeed, any "take over" by Asian immigrants has been effectively outdone, if not in number than in power, by the take over by Leftist whites from the Eastern US.
