How did San Francisco lost so much population in only three years??
SF is pretty expensive. A lot of folks who left work in tech and don’t actually need to be in person, so they left for cheaper pastures. That’s my explanation. I refuse to look up any data to back this up! More on reddit.com

More notable than the drop in SF (-34k) is the jump in population in Sacramento (+74k), Fresno (+34k), San Joaquin (+55k), and Placer counties (+32k). That looks a lot like affordability and WFH to me. More on reddit.com

May 4, 2025SF’s population drops again as city struggles to retain residents
The good buses are way too crowded, the apt inventory is very expensive and not that great. People want in unit washer/dryer, it’s a super premium to get. The fix is very simple: build more subway (muni rails underground) and build more dense new housing. (ALL INCOMES not just affordable). No need for fancy studies. Unfortunately the incompetence of our govt will not build the transportation we need. More on reddit.com
