Line 1: [[File:800px-SF From Marin Highlands3.jpg\|thumb\|~~left~~right\|~~300px~~400px\|San Francisco from Marin Headlands]] == Description == Founded in 1776 by Spanish missionaries and colonists, '''San Francisco''' (Spanish for Saint Francis), officially the '''City and County of San Francisco''', population 870,000,  is "the cultural, commercial, and financial center of Northern California." (Wikipedia). Founded in 1776 by Spanish missionaries and colonists, '''San Francisco''' (Spanish for Saint Francis), officially the '''City and County of San Francisco''', population 870,000, is "the cultural, commercial, and financial center of Northern California." (Wikipedia). Located at the north end of the San Francisco Peninsula, and at the "Golden Gate" or narrow mouth of San Francisco Bay, after which the city was named, San Francisco is about 48 square miles (124 km2) in area, the smallest county—and only consolidated city-county—in California. Line 16 ⟶ 18:   -- adapted from Wikipedia: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Francisco San Francisco].    ~~Monikers for San Francisco include "SF," "Frisco," "The City by the Bay," and "The Golden Gate City."~~ == Nicknames & Motto == SF The City The City by the Bay The Golden City Fog City San Fran, Saint Frank, Frisco (all 3 locally disparaged) The City that Knows How (past); Baghdad by the Bay (past); The Paris of the West (archaic; 19thC) Motto: ''Oro en Paz, Fierro en Guerra'' (Spanish); (English: "Gold in Peace, Iron in War").   == Issues == High rent and home prices High rates of displacement and out-migration  Limited housing supply Limited new development and redevelopment, especially of [[Affordable_housing\|Affordable housing]] Transit system is considered fragmented, insufficient, underinvested, undermaintained, and overburdened High and rising economic inequality High rates of poverty and homelessness Many areas at high risk due to climate change Many areas at high risk of earthquake and wildfire Relatively scarce water supply Food deserts == Economic Context: Growth and Diversification == [[File:Zynga HQ 0.jpg\|left\|300x212px\|Zynga headquarters at 8th and Townsend Image Source: Zero Hedge http://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/images/user5/imageroot/2016/04/20/zynga%20HQ_0.jpg]] Since the 1990s, San Francisco's economy has moved increasingly towards the prominence of high-tech, biotech, and medical research. Tech jobs accounted for 1 percent of the city's jobs in 1990. They had grown to 4 percent by 2010 and to an estimated 8 percent by the end of 2013. The San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward Metropolitan Statistical Area (a census designation) saw 90 percent tech industry growth from 2006-2016 according to a report by Praxis Strategy Group. San Francisco can now be said to be an important center for technology, Internet and social media companies (and especially for start-up businesses), attracting increasing venture capital funding compared to neighboring Silicon Valley - a trend the city has attempted to encourage with measures such as payroll tax exemptions for certain kinds of desirable companies. A lack of new housing development and options and opposition to them coupled with this influx of new jobs and commuters who work in Silicon Valley (another Bay Area nexus of job growth) has contributed to a housing crisis in San Francisco and other Bay Area communities. == Demographics == === Race and Ethnicity === Non-Hispanic Whites accounted for 48 percent of San Francisco's population in 2010, down from 92.5 percent in 1940, making San Francisco a minority-majority city. As of the 2010 United States census, San Francisco's population consisted of 48% Whites - 390,387 33% Asians - 267,915 Residents identifying as Chinese constituted the largest single ethnic block at 21 percent of the population. 6%  African-American/Black - 48, 870  This demographic has seen a steady decline since a high in 1970 of 13.4 percent of the population. 6.6 % Other race  Hispanics or Latinos of any race accounted for 15 percent of the population or 121,744 people. === Education, Households and Income === Following Seattle, San Francisco has the second-highest percentage of residents with a college degree of all major cities in the United States, with over 44% of San Francisco's adults having a bachelor's degree or higher. San Francisco is a hub for the LGBTQ community with the highest percentage of gay and lesbian individuals of any of the 50 largest U.S. cities, at 15% and the highest percentage of same-sex households of any American county. === Homelessness === San Francisco is estimated to have 13,500 persons with 6,500 living on the streets. == Government == === [[File:1200px-SFCityHall.png\|left\|328x214px\|Image Source: Wikipedia https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/18/SFCityHall.png/1200px-SFCityHall.png]]Municipal and County  === San Francisco (the City and County of San Francisco) has been in place as a consolidated city-county (the only such jurisdiction in California) since 1856 when it split from adjoining San Mateo County.
