I was curious about that claim and had a look in Berkeley; there are _a lot_ of R2 zoned plots, and while I didn't do the math, just eyeballing the colors I'd guess there are actually more R2 than R1 plots https://www.cityofberkeley.info/gisportal/ https://www.cityofberkeley.info/gisportal/
The SF map is objectively harder to use, but seems to have a similar "majority is RH-2 zoned" story: https://sfplanning.org/sites/default/files/resources/2019-02/zoning_use_districts.pdf https://sfplanning.org/sites/default/files/resources/2019-02...
