Atherton isn't in San Francisco. Nobody is being displaced. It's better to become familiar with your subject before forming an opinion.

Typical HN response where you pick specifics but really ignore the crux of the issue. Thanks for perpetuating the stereotype. The _bay area_ (silicon valley), also generally known as "San Francisco". Yes we all know there is really San Jose, Oakland, SF, Palo Alto, as actual cities.

The specific geographic location is irrelevant to the discussion. I can make the same exact argument for housing in NYC or some other city. People want cheap housing where people currently live.
