I've lived in the Bay Area for most of my life and I have zero confidence the situation will improve. It would have happened by now if it was going to. The transit situation in particular will not improve because people prefer cars. People have little experience with public transit, and the experience they do have was bad, so they don't see themselves using it on a regular basis. They want to live in suburbs and drive cars, and they will try very hard to prevent anyone from increasing the density of housing or transit anywhere near their houses. Those people vote, so a state government that tries to push for more public transit and housing density would not do well in the next election.
