Uh… you know about _Tales of the City_? (or is that archaic?) Fiction, but realistic except for the plot. Set on Telegraph Hill in mid-70s.

It’s a huge sentimental favorite for aged hippies and queers. (I might possibly be in one or more of those categories.) But that’s because it’s an accurate slice-of-life portrayal of the texture of SF living.

Housing and rent and landlords are a pervasive theme. It’s a series of nine novels running mid-70s to the present, so one might be able to read it as diachronic cultural history. Bearing in mind, of course, that it is fiction.

The first novel was made into a TV series which was really good. Checking the Wiki, it seems that volumes 2 and 3 were also TVized; I didn’t know that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tales_of_the_City_(1993_miniseries) …
