Has anyone ever looked at the curves for the cost of public services vs the cost of living in a city? What I'm getting at is that if the tech workers flee SF and are replaced by average income earners and lower property values, will SF be more or less able to provide the basic city services it is currently strugging with?
I suspect that the cost of providing basic services rises faster than CoL of an area, just by looking at CA as a whole. Setting aside the possibility of bad management, it seems that CA is incapable of providing basic services(reliable electricity, well maintained roads, water, sewer, housing, etc) despite being the 5th largest economy on the planet. Is CA a victim of its success?
