because there are 101 cities and many of them are experiencing various levels of fiscal stress, not to mention they have few incentives to cooperate with each other.
I understand the answer is HARD but like... HOW hard would it be to pull a new york here and turn the bay area into a single city?

Prop. 13 renders a lot of annexation non-viable IMHO. San Jose annexed a lot in the 1960s/1970s prior to P13, and that meant they were left with cost-heavy/residential-heavy financial structure.

I would love to see a Bay City emerge. I don’t know what the tipping point is to make things better, but my work in the developing world makes me fearful as to how long you can be stuck in a negative equilibrium.
