Sounds like someone (with a random handle and a 20-minute-old account) who spent ten minutes in the Tenderloin and thinks they're an authority on the entire Bay Area and California in general. I'm pretty sure there are awful terrible neighborhoods in Dallas and Houston and other places in Texas, too. Let's not be absurdly reductive. Nor does this have anything at all to do with people moving out of SF, of course: that's being driven by economic forces and the fact that the workers in question now have the freedom to work remotely from anywhere in the world, including all the various places where real estate costs 50-80% less than in SF.
