You can't steal from stores that are not there. Good Job Safeway!!
When businesses don't make profits, they move on.
@@user-os4fd4yl8zCan't make profits when coroks keep stealing from them
You reap what you sow. Maybe next time you take care of your community.
That's right. Voting for Democrats have repercussions.
Intended consequences of the state laws.
Can we have a moment of silence for all shop lifters who made this possible 😢😢
and if you stay silent, they will follow you home as well. Good job.
0:37 "it's not good for the neighborhood".
shoplifting is overblown by media, this is not the actual reason stores are closing
@@eqsaelInsurance for every business and car owner has gone up because of theft. Did you not hear what the people they were interviewing said about how bad the theft is?
No to think about the leaders who let it happen.
Please thank all the thieves that made this closing possible.
Are you really that dumb? We need housing in SF. Acting like this is just because of shoplifting
And then thank all the inept city leaders that enabled the thieves
@@RandA1220- Especially both Breed and Jenkins. Way to go you two!
Thank the politicians for their nonexistent accountability for putting criminals in jail
Thank also the parents who failed to raise their children properly.
This is the consequence when there are no consequences.
Good folks get punished when criminals who thieve from stores don’t get criminally prosecuted.
The community did this to themselves for continually voting for the wrong people.
I love the phrase, “WHAT YOU ALLOW WILL CONTINUE”.
What good folks? These folk lived with this mess for years, and they kept voting in the evil ones, over and over. These liberals love this action, remember they do every thing they can to keep thugs out of prison.
The crime rate in that neighborhood is lower than the national average.
@@saramae9878 According to SFgate, the property crime rate in 94124 San Francisco, CA is 84.8, which is more than double the US average of 35.4. Do you have any data to back up your claim?
Any city with a strong Democrat base has more crime. Even in London the police are allowed to knock down criminals on mopeds with their cars - with or without helmets.
@@saramae9878Let’s take a stab in the dark on who you voted for 😂
SF Mayor: This is a great opportunity to add housing.
SF residents: It’s the crime that forced this closure.
Can't wait for some activist to call this neighborhood a food desert
It’s the FeelNoMore
BLM neighborhood. It was just a matter of time.
@@danielwaters191Who cares what you want? No one.
More housing… great! Another condo structure with $500,000 price tag for 135 sq feet of room most likely.
Great job London Breed! Crime is absolutely out of control in this city and your solution is to add housing that’ll probably be $3,500 a month rent for a cardboard box sized room.
Crime is the reason why they close down!
According to many leftists, it was the pesky system called capitalism that so many of them loathe, now advocate for 'government-operated' groceries...
it's literally not the reason but keep that aphid brain thinkin!
it is, dumbdumb@@eqsael
@@eqsaelLondon bread is that you?
The city only have themselves to blame for not policing theft.
theft is not the reason the store is closing, please seek more information
@@eqsael 1:48 you know better than them lol 😂
@@eqsael Lolol whatever you say 🤣
@@eqsaelyes it is, if a store is profitable they will not close. When people can just take whatever they want it adds up fast.
haha. what else are the reasons@@eqsael
Why wouldn’t they sell. Get tired of taking losses from theft and high crime. Keep on voting the same and you get exactly what you deserve! These heart warming stories just keep coming.
Safeway didn't say crime quit making stuff up
That neighborhood as a crime rate lower than the national average.
@@saramae9878😂 Not according to others who live around there
@@jsanf44373There are no statistics to show that crime rates are different when Republicans are in office.
@@jsanf44373 Oh yeah Im sure theyre just raking in profits right is that why you gotta have an employee come unlock a case for every single item? Must be because they sell out so fast right 🤣🤣🤣
There was No “Safe-Way” to remain operating their Business in that Neighborhood.
Haha!
😂💀
😂🤣
I used to work there back in late 80's. Yes you are correct, it was always dangerous. Before I quit one employee chased a shoplifter was stabbed and paralyzed. Shoplifting was the norm and someone spreading their feces on the bathroom walls wasn't uncommon. We used to call it 'DangerousWay.' The "Safeway" over on Williams near 3rd Street, was even worse; sex in the isles, feces, heavy looting.
Maybe just employ more security! it’s only bc the city is greedy! As if Safeway is struggling lol
Wow! Once again, businesses calmly leaving places where they are constantly robbed. Shocker
Democrat areas, no shock there.
Slow clap for the black community. Congratulations. You played yourself.
Heartwarming story. Safeway looking out for its customer's safety by shutting it down so thieves can't rob it no more. Well done SF and California.
Not saying socal is that much better but we aren’t like those animals in SF/Oakland.
Amusingly, this will cause the reported crime rate to drop and leaders will pat themselves on the back for it.
@user-xg8ue7wk7z You're contradicting yourself. If three grocers failed then it's much less of a Safeway problem and more of a crime and neighborhood problem.
@user-xg8ue7wk7z I'll bite, High prices were due to high taxes and high employee health care and high losses of product. I assume you have never run a business with full time employees (and tried to at least break even)?
@user-xg8ue7wk7z They closed due to high theft from SF residents.
SF is a done city.
Everything should close until every city leader there are voted out.
there won't be any voters left.
They were never voted in. All Democrat Globalist mass Election frauds at every position
they'll just import more blue voters from across the border
Oh it will
Ummm, close down the grocery store, & build low income housing. No food stores (or business's) for the low income people, that are now even more crowded. Sounds like what happened to Detroit in the late '60's.
ask our mayor she's the head of our city
Ummm, that store and area is plagued by subhuman behavior constantly so good for those companies leaving. Quit complaining when local citizens don’t report crime and just turn a blind eye to the rampant theft and drug use, you get what you get, tolerate that stuff and don’t keep up the quality of life in a community and personal accountability with how we conduct ourselves then companies that are trying to run a successful business will leave. Simple stuff. Blame yourself not the people who are tired of the nonsense in the bay and Portland etc
Blah Blah Blah
Precisely, dumbest idea;reframing, by Breed, about the loss of this Safeway AS EVER!
@@turkey4957Do you live in that area?? No! There are more than a handful of neighborhoods that rely on that very store, and most of the people that ship there, PAY for their food!
In San Francisco the thieves think it’s their right to steal then when caught start to quote the law. About their rights. It’s very sad for the honest hard working shoppers and employees. We don’t go to San Francisco anymore too dangerous.
You're not missing anything. I have a relative who works in fashion, had to visit clients there. He said it was horrible. Yes, some spots can seem nice, but it can turn ugly very fast. That, and yes, the famous steaming piles on the sidewalk, he counted three over four days.
Look at the people that live there and you know the business has hit the limit of loss tolerance.
Place was notoriously awful way back in the 90s
The guy with the hat is 100 percent right. Can't blame safeway.
Not a single mention of the real reason for closure (shoplifting) by this great KTVU Fox reporting team?
Mainstream news is propaganda.
No that's not woke so they won't report it
Why doesn't the city open a Grocery Store where you can steal whatever you want without consequences?
Dean Preston should open one with his own money, he's always making excuses for criminals
It's called a "sting operation" it does work however the DA releases these so-called church people back into society after they are booked and released.
The hoods in Wash DC and Prince George's county MD salute the hoods in San Fran!
@@StephenDavis-vh4oc - ....and finance it with tax dollars (taking bribes and kickbacks on the backend from the "Homeless Industrial Complex" (supposedly non-profit) Executives with $Billion Dollar City Contracts getting wealthy.
they did. they are called safeway and cvs and target
you get what you vote for
Not everyone votes the same! There are A LOT of people in SF! It's one of the densest city's in the US.
I can tell your an outsider, this line fits perfectly when you have zero knowledge about the voting situation. I will give you a perfect example, when a mayor is running & all you have 5 Democrats running. Not a single Republican in the voting ballot, are you going to vote Republican? Please enlighten us. The same goes with many other candidates/positions, but we have outsiders writing the same clueless line. I didn’t vote for this, I’m as conservative as it comes. But maybe just maybe, some Republican candidates should step up on local elections.
If only they vote differently during the primaries. But they probably don't even know how primaries work 😂
@@Calinative0523 That's the guys point.. the state and local government is so deep blue, Republicans don't even have a chance. And even if they did manage to win an election enough woke morons would just cry about "racism" and ruin any attempt by a republican to address the crime. So yeah that area is getting what it votes for because it's probably 90% democrat at a minimum. The shop lifting problem is a direct result of the local Democrat DA refusing to prosecute shop lifting.
@@Calinative0523 I'm referring to the city, state and country as a whole, this tide is not going to stop in California
Our pre-agriculture ancestors would kill us for being useless and harvest our bones for weapons and tools 😂
Considering the system is useless people are going back to those days of no consequences.
It’s not good for the neighborhood? What did people say when people steal in Safeway?
"they" said: "leave some for me to steal, please".
BLM
@@garycallihan4206
😂😂
The mayor just looks the other way when people steal.
they cheered them on or looked the other way...Now when the effects of the Marxist policies have come home to roost all these woke residents have a surprised Pikachu face
remember when san francisco was a fancy place you dreamed of visiting ?
Pepperidge Farms does too....30 years ago I used to make a trek there every couple of years...not anymore
Pepperidge Farms also remembers that time you hit the bicyclist on that dark road and kept driving, Pepperidge Farms remembers @@neckarsulme
Not all of SF was fancy. The Fillmore was the Jazz Mecca of the West and historically where middle class Black San Franciscans became prominent before the City displaced many families in the 50s for “freeways” that never were built. These families ended up organizing and funding projects like Black Panthers in Oakland to provide for Black communities suffering from lack of healthy food sources and combating racism
Willie brown sold out his own ppl and all of SF, as well as London Breed
Nope
Thank you addicts and homeless
More thanks to the amazing policies which enable the behavior of that lifestyle.
Thank democrats
can you still steal $950 a day no problem?
In seven different states.
Good job Safeway!!! Thank you for NOT rewarding shoplifters. If you create a "food desert", even better. Make those "communities" feel those bad decisions, and maybe next time they won't hero worship criminals and criminal behavior.
Good, then they all can go shopping at your local store! DuH
@@FayTown82 eh, not my problem
Maybe the mayor can arrange twice-daily shoplifter bus transportation to the other Safeway. Call it RapidTheft or something catchy.
Steal and Go. Grab and Dash, Bring the kids it’s Family theft day.
Theyll probably call it reparations for kangz n sheeit
This is how Food Deserts are made. What will elderly people without vehicles do now? 😢
Delivery??
camels?
@@donlee.4308 More driving; carbon emmisions.. Also, everyone in the "new housing will need to buy food, medicine, home goods, need Western Union, etc. as well.
@@martid03Muni is less safe now than ever before, especially for the elderly.
Go across the road to Japantown?
Congratulations SF and Mayor B
Ive been to this safeway dozens of times in the past years... Everytime i was there was there were dozens of guys and girls in hoodies and backpacks stealing everything from the store including the most expensive foods and items and the security guards barely did anything and in many cases they talked and gave each other the "we brothas" type look or we family...
But,but,but where we gonna shop? Who cares! Actions have consequences ,damn thieves.
talk to our mayor
The thieves weren't shopping and vice versa! Why should people without cars have to pay for others' crime. They don't need housing, they need food and pharmacies, civilization. And elected officials who don't harm them.
Shes pretty useless, and lining her pockets.@@benhui2107
Where we gonna steal*
This is sad, as the son of a senior citizen mother that is still able and likes to go out independently short distances to buy things for herself, if I was in this neighborhood this would be be a difficult blow. SF needs to get its act together as far as consequences for breaking laws and pretty quick.
I’ve literally been in Safeway when there were more people stealing then there were shoppers this shit is just wrong
What the people did in LA was the same. You keep stealing from your local grocery store until they end up closing down. I hope you enjoyed your one year of free groceries. Now your family will not have anywhere to shop. You will be forced to travel for food now.
@mocheen4837 sorry, L.A shoplifting was never as bad as SF.. you really haven't seen this with your eyes.. you would be shocked... L.A has active guards who actually attack even if you step outside. I've seen people get pounced on in L.A.
I've NEVER seen that there. There are SO MANY people who shop there!
@@mei6044it was the one in the fi di. It happens at night and I’ve seen it more than once.. Also, isn’t this the Safeway that security guard got killed at?
@@dbdnrbdb
“Soft” Francisco. What an embarrassing city this has become.
It was a shame seeing people hiding/stealing groceries. Thanks for safeway staying this long...shoplifting has been going on for a while. It was shocking to see a shoplifter getting mad because they got caught...no shame at all.
It might add housing but food prices are going to get even higher in the area because there’s only going to corner stores and gas stations within walking distances.
The problem with SF is they built too much housing. It's not normal for human beings to live packed like sardines, smack dab on top off each other.
the stop and robs
Nijiya, woori, mira, niponya and if you can walk about 20 mins then target and traderjoes are considered as the walking distance shops around there.
Literally nothing about this will aDd hOuSiNg lmfao
I think more businesses need to shut down and move out of the city so these politicians get off their asses and start enforcing the laws. We've been too soft on crime and have made this city too inviting for homeless to live off our tax dollars. I don't mind giving a helping hand in need but you really can't keep giving handouts indefinitely. There has to be a timeline given for people receiving welfare or whatever assistance there is to get off whatever drugs they're on, look for a job, and get off the assistance. If the person does find a job but tries to game the system by quitting to get back on assistance then provide assistance by calculating how long they've held onto the job. If they've worked 30 days then that should be credit for 2 days to a week for further assistance if they lose their job.
Unfortunately there isn't a time machine for people too old to walk 3 miles to a store and 3 miles back. The crime is an excuse to favor real estate interests and $. Fewer stores means more cars and pollution. How did people become so inhumane.
@@Jesse-gr2xo So what is your solution then? Keep the store open and keep losing inventory and money? How do incidents affect the shoppers who have to shop there and witness such incidents? No one wants to be inhuman to another person, but things have been out of control for such a long time in this city. It's not normal and even though the same thing is happening in various cities throughout the US, we should never call it normal and no amount of financial inequality should be used as an excuse and justification for what is going on. At some point things need to reset and start over.
@@Jesse-gr2xoIne of the first people with a brain in this comment section. Ty!
@@ibuyufoOf course its not normal. No one thinks it's normal, but what Jesse said is true, and the actual crux and truth of the matter.
I'm wondering what Newsom's timeline is for the illegal alien whom he is offering free healthcare at taxpayer expense? Unfortunately, there is no timeline for welfare. We're 60 years into welfare with no end in site.
Unsafeway, drone delivery is going to be the only way the community gets groceries 😂
People are going to hijack the drone signals and steal all the packages 😂
They will steal the drones
Here in the stoogery environs of the East Bay, I am hoisting a shot of Elijah Craig rye whiskey to the ambience and excellence of the political seditionists of SF.

Another beautiful California story. Such inspiration!
This happens nation wide so it is other state's stories also.
Sad story. ... The Community will suffer. .. Go Woke: Go Broke. ... Go Broke: Go Hungry.
Heartwarming story of people earned what they had voted for. I am happy for everyone of them.
2024 is starting strong. Wonderful.
Just "food" desserts.
Californians, sitting in the middle of a flaming room while sipping a cup of coffee: "California's economy is doing good. I'm fine with this."
The level of disconnect in America is an eye opener!
@@brumbyfreedom329 It is mainly on the edges, east and west.
At this point it’s like that in all of America due to the majority of the country who voted for Sleepy Joe. We got what we deserved so that’s why it’s important that we vote Republican in the next election to ensure it doesn’t happen again.
Well, when you don’t enforce the laws, businesses leave. The people of San Francisco need to wake up and take back that once beautiful city.
Closing down due to the 13% of our population.
13% yet commits 51% of violent crime
@@Box545x39 Closer to two thirds
Not even 13%. Old black men and women of all ages aren't doing this (some young ratchets women but a small number). It's specifically young black men. So really, it's a single digit percentage.
@@JohnDoe-pt7ru A small number of black women? Lmfao yeah bulllllllshit 🤣
I was recently in a supermarket in San Bruno (just south of San Francisco) - people were eating produce right off the shelves - nobody said anything - how can any store manage to stay in business when thieves steal the merchandise in plain sight?
The Castro Safeway already gets hella packed, especially on weekends
I hope safeway closes that location too.
I wonder why? But the good news is crime is down, because all the stores are closed...according to the data crime is down in the city...man im outta here...
Yeah that's what happens when the Police stop showing up and the Politicians know they can lie to their voters faces because theyre a bunch of ignorant toddlers
What is left in San Francisco at this point?
The degenerates
Crime. And poop.
Hobos and an overabundance of pronouns.
Raising cost of living 😂
Rainbows, fentanyl and fairy dust.🧚
Everyone of those interviewed most likely had friends and relatives who ripped off the store
Safeway is smart. Hard for criminals to walk away with real estate!
SF Mayor: no plans to get tough on crime to help mitigate all these businesses from closing down?
Lets just ignore the root cause of all these problems (crime) and build more housing, yay!
When I went to this Safeway (hadn’t been in many years) I was shocked at how it has changed because of thievery. Enter/exit almost the same way in Oakland’s largest Safeway
@2:25 "for one man in his 70's said this was his supermarket since he was a kid" this safway is 40 years old😅 this man was at least 30 something when it was opened
Yup I remember delivering beer to the supermarket on Webster in the late 70's? Wasn't it a Cala or Albertsons before it was a Safeway?
If they would only sell Fathers Day card, sun screen and work boots there would be no shoplifting.
Where will Nancy buy her ice-cream?
From the plenty of higher end ice cream shops that we have in SF.
@@mei6044 - Eventually those will close also once their windows are broken and stores are burned down.
SF politicians need to work on crime before blaming why stores are closing down in SF. Politicians just can see the forest from the tree…..pity
100 percent ! They rather sign the checks than address the problems of the City that politicians have sold us out on! London Breed is from the Western Addition and that’s really how she rose to prominence is by collaborating with real estate moguls in NoPa
So Sad, once the most beautiful city in America.
You know, it's not just San Francisco correct? I live up in Seattle and also sometimes I stay in Portland and it's horrible up here. I think it's getting bad most places, especially the emigrants coming in illegally and all over the place is just one big mess, not just california
I would laugh out loud if I didn't feel so badly for the people who truly need this store!😮
the majority of people who need this store voted for the people who enabled the mess to begin with
🤣🤣🤣
@@neckarsulme If they could go from "no snitchin'' to "neighborhood watch" maybe, just maybe, something would change for the better.
Make sure to thank all the politicians who made this possible 👏 👏 👏
there are bunch of decent Asian grocery stores around there; nijiya, woori, mira and more. Walgreen is about 0.3 miles away. Target and Trader Joe are about a mile away from there as well so don't call it a food desert.
most of people who have been to that safeway location probably thought the store closure was matter of time due to its high crime rate, random street vendors around their parking lot and such
Wow! Another high income housing for the rich. Thanks London Breed.
I heard going to be projects I heard about few months ago at broad meeting. That place is going be the new ghetto
London Breed, sounds like a British bulldog mix (with apologizes to bulldogs).
They’re stealing too much out of that store. It’s ridiculous.
Having a grocery store within walking distance is as important as having a park within walking distance. It is a vital residential amenity.
The parks there are scary too full of homeless and sketchy loitering people. It’s the helplessness to crime that they’re closing.
Go to Falletti Foods near the panhandle. Its more expensive but thats how it is.
SF is a rudderless, leaderless mess.
Paris of the West.
the next closest one is a whole mile away,i hope those people are okay
It’s closing next genius ,
In SF that's a big deal bro.. people are usually on foot.. plus the large hills to get there and back..the elderly..
A mile is a long way (and a lot of traffic and stress) in a City that is less than 7 miles x 7 Miles. And @mad420thc made the most important point. Elderly people have trouble getting around and many times can't drive, must walk, or god forbid take the bus in SF. They are many times on fixed (low) incomes.
That's an hour commute with city traffic.
@@daveclark8337 that is not true though
Why don't the newscasters have the courage to mention crime? They leave it to a pedestrian to say.
Justice served!
Thank you NewScom and dems!
Most of those people complaining voted for the policies that caused all these stores to close . It's called getting what you voted for.
The opposition party has given up in big city America. They don't run for office anymore. Who wants to inherit the Democrat mess they've created? This is it, there is no coming back from this.
Kinda of like how they all voted to basically legalize shoplifting. Forgot the name of the bill they voted for, but it effectively made any item(s) stolen under $1000 or total items stolen would be considered only a minor misdemeanor crime. In which case if caught wouldn't even result in jail time.
The neighborhood tacitly supports the criminal "culture" and then complains that they will be in a food desert? Wake up, when will you stand up and criticize your own uncivilized cultural behavior?
Will there be any stores left in San Fransicko?
I live in S-F. Answer to your question: "NO." Not in the Downtown area nor in the high-risk
(aka SAGGIN neighborhoods).
@@SouLoveReal I was joking. Glad to see you care about your community.
The way to reduce crime is to enforce the law. The way to keep businesses in your area is to maintain conditions that allow them to be profitable. The way to get more housing is to remove barriers to new construction and allow rents to be determined by the market.
I remember back in the 80's, when this area on Fillmore, south of Geary, was all chain link fenced sand dunes where beautiful Victorians once stood, with sidewalks around them. Then they opened a new Safeway, Blockbuster, Sizzler, new apartment buildings everywhere. It was nice!
Yeah but certain CuLtUrEs turned the place into 💩 within a decade. It was 💩 when I used to shop there back in 2004 and now it’s much worse. I blame the people in the surrounding community for bad (or lack of) parenting that so many in young people in Western Addition become anti-social criminals before they’re even teenagers.
New Housing? Speechless.
More houses = more tax income for the city.
Closing it's San Francisco store is a safeway of doing business.
Blame misinformed voters and the city leaders for this. But the folks of San Francisco County keep voting for the same people every single term. It's difficult to be sympathetic for them. We all know what the issues are and nothing will change unless new leaders with a different mindset are ushered in to the game.
Dean Preston is a big part of the problem. He is a joke and never met a criminal he didn't like.
I have never heard a black leader call out shoplifting in spite of the harm it does to the black community. Why?
That’s not a store. It’s a help yourself free food bank.
The residents force the grocery stores to leave and then complain about the lack of grocery stores. I do pity the innocent people who are caught in the middle.
The innocent better get smart ( "Neighborhood watch" anyone?) or better get out or they're part of the problem -
All these corporate retailers with their BLM signs and virtue signaling commercials are now RIGHTFULLY moving away from the people they were pandering to. It’s virtually impossible to run a successful business where the surrounding culture is toxic, you can literally hear police sirens in the background during one of the interviews.
yep, get woke, go broke in action
Sounds about whoite
The police stations are purposely set in the middle of the Fillmore. To police and intimidate CERTAIN populations (POC). This is about big money and real estate grabs and furthering gentrification
You prob never been here bc you’re afraid you’ll get gay or something stupid
YOU a sound toxic and hateful
Haha, all the locals admit it’s due to the crime.
Someone smashed a vehicle into the front of our BevMo here In Milpitas.
Lol, y’all stay safe out there. 😂
San Franciscans voted for this. Good job. You deserve everything you get.
@00:34🤣🤣🤣
"Nawl, they can't do dat."😂
more homeless housing but fewer grocery shops
Let's give a round of applause to those who voted for Prop 47.
From Whole Foods to No food. London Breed sure can spin poop into gold calling it rare opportunity for more housing.
Best way to combat obesity is to keep food away.
As an Australian I grew up dreaming of traveling to see the United States, Golden State Bridge being one spot.
Is this still a good idea? Or I am safer here with the spiders, snakes emus ETC.
Visit between December and March. The street bums thin out a bit when the weather gets cold and rainy. They go indoors to city provided shelters until the sun starts getting warm again in April. Also, don't skimp on your hotel. Investigate and make sure your hotel doesn't have any SRO single room occupancy tenants, (paid by the city). I've seen tourists stay in a hotel near where I live with some crazy addicts smoking meth with a two liter butane torch, throwing trash out the window and living like animals. The rooms are cheap yeah, but you're staying in the same hotel as the neighborhood meth/fetty dealer. Not good!
I would love to see Australia. Wanna trade vacations?
nah , you are way safer in the outback than in San Fran..
enjoy the wildlife there than the wild people of California..
@@junc3354San Fran? Really? No one says that!
You can drive over the bridge with no need to spend any time n SF. Rental vehicles will get broken into there. I suggest to drive across the bridge and stop at one of the lookouts on the other side, where you'll have great views. From there, drive up to Napa valley. Just don't stop anywhere in SF, and never leave anything of value in your rental car.
anyone's surprise
Thank you Major Weed for creating this "unique opportunity" for developers.
Where was this outrage when people were stealing? The outrage should start with the politicians who contributed to the tolerance of lawlessness all over SF
Build a prison their
You people in here saying oh, it's California. It's San Francisco I got a stick up for California. I live in Washington and Seattle. It's horrible up here also in Portland same thing in other parts of the country. It's just getting worse and worse and worse
All run by Democrats.
Its getting to the point where that entire city will be unsustainable, there wont be any stores at all anymore which will drive everyone out and only criminals will remain unless some major changes are done
I used to shop at that store. I stopped going there about 4 years ago. At that time they were double-checking everyone leaving like they do at Costco. I started going to the Marina store.
That’s a win-win for Safeway
NOOOOOO!!!! That was the closest one to where I live... It's such a pain in the as to get to any of the other ones in the city. Sure Church and Market is one bus ride away, but I already have to take the bus there so having to now transfer on the way back home especially when I have ice cream. They're definitely right that a large part is the crime aspect since there's always people coming from areas where they camp just beyond Van Ness trying to steal what they can either because they can't afford it after spending most their money on whatever shit they're buying from the areas they're camping in or to try to flip a profit to buy more shit. This just really sucks as I have difficulties traveling due to chronic pain issues that go untreated due to chronic pain being stigmatized so this is just going to make my life that much more difficult in every regard.
Me visiting SF 10 years ago: this crime is way out of hand. Typical response from locals: "People are poor and are only taking things to survive, the businesses have insurance. Damn, you have a cold heart and are an asshole." Me: Have a nice day. Bye.
I hope this housing project has alot of affordable housing. That is what the city needs. The city doesn’t need more market rate housing.
sf “affordable housing” is making 300,000$ a year per household. those low income housing are jokes cuz they raffle them off for a good rate but don’t tell the poor people that they will now have a monthly HOA that’s around $1000 a month and can raise even more as the HOA seems fit.
who runs the HOA?
