I worked there for a better part of a decade and I have been to very rough places during their worst times, late 90's and early 2000's(east Oakland, east Palo Alto, and south central Los Angeles) and tenderloin in SF is on another level of dysfunction than any of those spots ever were. Its extremely dangerous and the open drug use is like no place I have ever seen anywhere in the US or the world for that matter. I was there early this year and due to the post pandemic office vacancies there are no more "normal" people there anymore, just homeless and drug addicts and an occasional city worker or two.
