The excuse by the residents as to why this is ok is certainly that.
How dumb do you have to be to complain about how much living in the city costs while paying almost a thousand a month to live in a closet… You. You're the reason it's expensive and why housing isn't a priority. You have to stop buying this dumb shit to solve the issue and let's be honest if you're paying 700 to live in a closet and praise it's networking chances you aren't unable to move.
You do realize a 500 sq ft studio apartment may run $2000/mo or more in that same area right? It's one of the most expensive places to live in the US
That's the problem, and this is not a reasonable solution.
I think the solution is to move somewhere cheaper with fast Internet.
I don't argue that there aren't any better solutions, but SF is on a peninsula (called Yerba Buena if anyone cares) and is already the 2nd most densely populated city in the US, which is just to say that it's a limited space without a lot of options for housing short of building in more density.
