The young who are childless but still have a high income. That implies, though, that if/when they have kids, they're going to find San Francisco to be less attractive...

Of course, "when people have kids" is frequently the point where many people living in just about any city in the country (or at least a denser part of an urban core) pick up and move to the suburbs however reluctantly. For reasons of better public schools, more space, lower crime, etc.

Sure, but most young people don't have a high income.
