San Francisco is the world capital of NIMBYs. In terms of the record large discrepancy of supply and demand, in terms of how much economic damage it does to the whole country, even to the whole planet, and in terms of how much worldwide visibility SF NIMBYism gets, as SF NIMBYs also are those who cause the most hurt to foreigners who aspire to move to the area in search of better economic opportunities.
