I lived in San Francisco (Fisherman's Wharf) from 1984-87 and the city (at the time) was mostly safe and well run. "The Tenderloin" (even then) was a well known "no go zone" in the after hours. I do recall an event which made the local news (and beyond) at the time (I think it was1985). A young immigrant Vietnamese family, living in a Tenderloin "flop hotel," won something around five million dollars in the California lottery. True story! Within one day, the family packed up (kind of like the Beverly Hillbillies) and moved into the posh St. Francis Hotel. I never forgot this and have often wondered what became of them in the ensuing years. I hope they did well. Bless their hearts - they reaped the American dream!

Lol, interestingly, nothing has changed. The Tenderloin is about as messed up as it always was. The rest of the city is about as nice as it always was. The only exception is the completely incredible gentrification of some neighborhoods. Many of the neighborhoods that were almost as bad as the Tenderloin are now completely posh hangouts for the rich and famous. Despite the right wing media frenzy about SF supposedly being "a war zone", SF is a looooooot safer now than it was in the 80s and 90s. I see people walking around and hanging out at night in places where this was unthinkable in your times in the City. I find it hilarious that this whole media circus is feeding off of videos shot in a four block radius in the Tenderloin. It's almost like they don't even want to try a little harder to convince anyone that they're not lying.

I can’t help but wonder who’s paying for all of this? The hospital bills the hotel rooms. How could there ever be a middle-class there if only wealthy people could afford to live there to support the people on the streets trying to recover? Isn’t the whole goal of our economy to maintain a middle class

the tenderloin has it's issues and it has many gems. A rich history of poor people being concentrated into tiny housing. Many of the people on the street live in the buildings, but would rather be outside than in a cramped space. And yes many would rather use the bathroom outside than use the shared bathrooms on the floor of their S.R.O. In the 40's huge buildings went up in the TL to house ship builders during WW2. The spaces were meant to be temporary housing, but after the jobs disappeared ultra poor moved in and stayed. The same basic premise happened in the SOMA and Hunters Point neighborhoods. It's an amazing city which in many ways was built on racism, ie chinatown was the only place the chinese could own property. same is true for north beach (Italian), the mission (spanish) and many other neighborhoods. Other neighborhoods have had large overhauls ie japantown/fillmore which have led to poor people being displaced to other convenient locations such as the TL and HP, they loose what they call home and deserve better. No easy fix exists but it needs to be nationwide because the nations problems seem to find their way to Sf. Far from the family's and community's that can help them best. Much good still exists in the TL.

The bad thing is you leave your tent for a couple of hours. You come back and find a squatter has taken over. Are you going to call a cop?

Maybe people should stop staring at the make-believe world on their smartphones and just look into the real world. You are as safe as how you show and react.

It's called the 'Tenderloin' because San Francisco police were paid off in steaks to look the other way at this red light district. The Tenderloin has never been a decent place to live.

The best approach may be to find people who have recovered from extreme drug addiction and get them to “patrol” the streets. Only they can carry the message of recovery. It could be a win/win for SF. Believe it or not, there are lots of recovered drug addicts who would jump at the chance for an organized approach. Turn vacant storefronts into meeting halls, for the time being, until some progress is made.

Won't work. Why do these people fall into homelessness and drugs? High cost of living and high taxes added on with the stupid democrat way of handling COVID 19 for as long as they did. High taxes and mandated shutdowns caused businesses to close down and people lose their jobs. Then they lose their homes and then they lose hope with all the high costs of living and turn to drugs. Then they get desperate and resort to theft and find it easier to survive by stealing things because the soft on crime policies which then drives away more businesses and more opportunities. This then creates more homelessness and the growing number of homeless people then drives away tourism and more businesses with their rampant crimes, open drug use and defecation on sidewalks which drives away more businesses creating a land barren of opportunities. And the cycle then repeats itself until nothing is left. Want to fix the homeless problem? Look to the politicians that run this city with their stupid policies. People have been warned about all of this and yet they vote blue no matter who. Republican ran cities have their issues as well but it's nowhere near any of all the major democratic cities in America. I travel around America because my job requires that I do at times, and of all the states I've been to, it's usually the most democratic ones that have been completely gutted. If you don't believe me, then you have to see it for yourself. Travel to Texas or Florida and do a comparison. Find out who runs the cities you visit and see for yourself.
