Regardless of the specifics of which is worse with housing in terms of vacant housing. It is not the only housing issue with the Bay Area, SV, and SF. That entire area is an awful neoliberal NIMBY dystopia.
Overall, China’s ghost towns and the entire Bay Area are bad in terms of housing.
I don’t know enough about housing, but from the outside, the housing issues of the Bay Area seem arguably worse. The NIMBY behavior and the leeching of the well off from others and the house or cards that is the way things are financed in the Bay Area and other major parts of the US with many cities and towns being close to Ponzi schemes because they are made for cars aka sprawl which is unsustainable. And then the NIMBY in suburbia sprawl and in the urban cities isn’t good either.
Again without knowing a lot, I think I’d take ghost towns over how the Bay Area and much of the US is
