The pay in San Francisco isn't double what it is other places. Closer to 40% higher(according to Robert Half). Also lots of people are saying that San Francisco has better tech talent. Which mean the actual number is less than 40% because an average San Francisco dev would be only get paid above average in a smaller market.

And the difference is smaller compared to other large markets like Chicago, Houston, and L.A.
