What about those who provide social services to city-dwellers? Teachers, firefighters? It can be problematic to have the police tasked with protecting a city they don't even live in. Next time you see an SFPD officer with a free moment ask him/her what they think of the explosive growth in SoMa.

If they can't afford to live where they work maybe they're under payed?

I don't think that's a "maybe".

Lol sfpd with a free moment. The sfpd and sffd are some of the most busy. I remember reading last year that one sf fire truck rolled more than a thousand times over the previous twelve months.
