A relevant statistic I found interesting: SF had 10x the number of feces complaints as the entirety of NYC in 2017[1]. Having lived in both places, that’s a larger difference than I would have expected, although I do encounter it far more often in SF than I ever did in NYC.

- tenaciousDaniel 7y agoCan confirm. I lived in NYC for 4 years, only saw poop like once or twice. Visited SF for one week, saw poop about 5 times.
