Worst neighborhoods like Tenderloin are *crazy* compared to what they were like in the 90s-early 2000s. They always weren't nice, but now it is completely bananas.
Crime is up, enforcement is down. Police won't respond to robberies at stores because the DA won't prosecute, so, robberies are increasing. At most CVS or Wallgreens type stores, they now have to have security at the door plus little bells on all the locked-up merchandise

There are human feces found frequently on the sidewalk, in many neighborhoods, including ones that used to be nice. I remember in 2004 I went to Paris and was shocked by how much dog poop there was ... which I wouldn't have been had 2004 SF been like 2020 SF.
