San Francisco -- "the biggest loser among 242 U.S. cities with more than 100,000 people"

Now there's a great quote!

[Constitutional Patriot]

It also has the fastest growing vagrant demographic in America....Good job lefties!!!! You have managed to trash one of America's most beautiful cities!!

[cherry_bomb88]

Either that or it's hard to "procreate" when you have only one gender in the relationship.

The central valley is filling up. Until prices become reasonable in the Bay area, it will continue.

[cherry_bomb88]

You know, it's a shame too, because San Francisco really can be a very cool town.

[Damagro]

Who would've thought that the number of people leaving San Fran and the people dying would outnumber births there.

[arkfreepdom]

I hate what they have done to SF. It was one of my favorite cities.

[sheik yerbouty]

"Shrinkage! It was shrinkage!"

[hattend]

That SF Bay is pretty cold.

You can thank Willie Brown and the leftist trash for ruining one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Don't worry when the citizenry of San Francisco have had a belly full of wrong-headed liberalism they will wise up and vote for a conservative law and order Republican to clean up the mess that liberals have been leaving all over this country. Do ya think San Franciscans wish that Irish cop Frank Jordan was still in office?

Thank you Gray Davis. This is just the beginning for Calif. cities' problems. Higher taxes, higher insurances and illegals taking valuble jobs from trades people. Calif is going to take a big hit in ganeral.

[Slyfox]

Prices...you got that right. My 4 bedroom house worth 240,000 in North Texas would be worth over a million in Mountain View. There is no way I could move to the Silicon Valley and afford to live there. I checked the mobile home parks and even they have waiting lists.

San Francisco Becomes Fastest-Shrinking U.S. City

The shrikage is caused by male-to-ex-male operations.

The one thing that's tough for me is that I grew up a Giants and Niners fan, and still am, but I hate The City. I lived in the bay area for 12 years and only went to San Francisco twice, not counting going to Candlestick Park for the games.

Somebody is flat out lieing. My little east coast FloridUH town had a 21% population increase this past census because of the West Palm Beach exodus.

But maybe Floriduh isn't part of the USA anymore? Or maybe my numbers are wrong? Or maybe it's a BS article?

Nah, it's got to be true, it's in print! I must be mistaken.

[cherry_bomb88]

I've always loved SF, but you're right, it's just not the same anymore.
