The results were consistent across gender, age, ethnicity, party affiliation, and neighborhood, and homeownership status,\u201d the Chamber <a href=\"https:\/\/sfchamber.com\/new-polling-shows-that-8-out-of-10-residents-believe-crime-has-gotten-worse-in-san-francisco-vast-majority-support-increasing-police-officers-and-expanding-police-work\/\">wrote<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor the second year in a row, 70% of residents feel that the quality of life in San Francisco has declined. Considered in light of the pandemic, these views are somewhat unsurprising. However, what stands out in the polling results is the strikingly high and consistent number of respondents who now view homeless and crime as the leading problems facing the City. Roughly 88% see homelessness as having worsened in recent years, and an overwhelming 80% see addressing this homelessness crisis as a high priority.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The poll also found more than 40% say they plan to move out of the city in the next few years, the local CBS affiliate <a href=\"https:\/\/sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com\/2021\/06\/30\/poll-san-francisco-residents-consider-relocating-as-crime-worsen-quality-of-life-in-a-decline\/\">reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Lindsay Stevens, a San Francisco resident for 12 years until last weekend, told KPIX-5, \u201cThere\u2019s nothing worse than seeing such a beautiful place in such disarray. I really thought I was going to be sad when the movers loaded up the last container on Saturday, and I have never been more relieved.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI honestly think in the last three years, we\u2019ve seen a massive decline in the quality of life and that was only enhanced over COVID,\u201d she said. \u201cThe homelessness has been a severe problem, people are not feeling safe walking their dog\u2026 the number of break-ins seem to be constantly on the rise.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The poll found that 80% of residents say crime has worsened in recent years.&nbsp;Car break-ins have <a href=\"https:\/\/sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com\/2021\/06\/30\/car-break-ins-skyrocketing-as-thieves-target-unsuspecting-tourists-in-san-francisco\/\">skyrocketed<\/a> in the city, with police reporting that car burglaries skyrocketed 753% in May compared to the same time last year.<\/p>\n<p>Rodney Fong, San Francisco Chamber of Commerce president and CEO, said, \u201cSan Francisco has suffered over the past year, which highlighted and exacerbated issues like homelessness, street conditions, and safety concerns. Public infrastructure and the ability to manage street conditions were also pushed to their limits, and unsurprisingly our residents feel strongly about it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn order to support the City, its residents, and our economic recovery, serious investments need to be made. Mayor [London] Breed has laid out budgets which target these issues in a holistic manner, and they lay the groundwork for serious solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month, Breed announced a $1 billion investment to address&nbsp; homelessness.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeyond programs, San Franciscans want to see substantial policy changes in the City\u2019s response to homelessness. 80% of San Franciscans supported expanding conservatorship for individuals experiencing severe mental illness. Conservatorship provides court-ordered treatment for those who are no longer able to care for themselves due to mental illness,\u201d the Chamber said.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
