SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) — As San Francisco tries to bounce back from the devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, crime and homelessness now rank among the highest levels of concerns among local residents, many who are contemplating relocating, according to a new poll.

The poll was released by the SF Chamber of Commerce and based on feedback from more than 500 San Francisco residents who are registered to vote.

BYRON YORK: Democrats afraid to talk about crime.

“It appears to be dawning on some Democrats in Washington that it is not a good idea politically to be soft on crime during a crime wave — especially when their own positions helped spark the crime wave. . . .

But here’s the kicker: Some of those very same Democrats who get the message are afraid to talk about it in public.”
