Not sure who is living in SF unless you have rent control and have been here for a bit.
I live in Fremont ( 45 minute BART ride ) and work in the city. I expect to leave the bay area when my lease is up because I expect the rent to climb to $STUPID
I could afford to live in the city if I was single. Single kids out of college don't make what I make nor would I spend that much on a place to live. Regardless of how much I like the City.
Edit : the rent I have paid in the last 6 years would have paid for a home... nice one in an HOA in most markets ... and my rent is 33% below market
