I assume theres a source for this somewhere?
- bgentry 16y agoNot sure if he has a study to prove this.. But can you think of any other industries in SF that have generated huge job growth during the past 10 years? I can't. That doesn't mean Arrington is right, but I can't think of a reason to doubt that statement. And I know I've heard that many of the financial companies have moved out of the city or downsized operations here during that span in order to avoid the high cost of living and tax rates.
- _delirium 16y agoHas the tech industry in SF generated huge job growth recently? From the scarce statistics I can find, it seems SF tech employment has actually declined over the past few years.
