SF leads the nation in no one wanting to work in an office

One thing I don't miss when from any location I worked at in San Francisco (two locations in the Mission and one Downtown): The game "dog or human?"

The confusing part for some people who don't live in SF is the realization that "downtown SF" is essentially the worst part of the city - the part that people love to complain about on Twitter. The primary reason for venturing into the FiDi/SoMa/Civic Center areas was because that's where the office buildings are, and people had to be in the office. Now that most tech workers in the city don't have to be in the office, they're free to avoid that part of the city and stay/live/explore the many other neighborhoods of SF that are nothing like "downtown". As a transplant it took me a little while to understand this because typically a city's downtown area is a desirable place to be - untrue for SF (and also LA while I'm on the topic).

Perhaps some of the old SF crazy culture will manage seep back in? One can dream... I really liked SF when it was a bedroom community of silicon valley. The dotcom explosion and especially the last decade squeezed the life out of the city.

Unsurprising with elevated housing costs in VHCOL cities. The requirement to work in an office requires one to live near the office, or commute to it.

It does not seem to be safe to walk on many of the San Francisco streets. How do people exactly expected to get to the office?
