You must be taking some weird specifics here. Nothing I can see lists San Fran as second densest.

Not really, I meant exactly what I said. It is the second densest large (> 100k) city (city proper, not metro area).

Not that specific

even in that regard it's third after New York City, and Paterson New Jersey.

Sure, still much higher than one might think from walking around. Certainly surprised me

More a testament to the ubiquity of sprawl in the states than anything I think
