unfortunately the lack of diversity makes it hard for me to live there

You don't think non-whites live in Detroit/Chicago?

I'd argue SF isn't that diverse, especially some neighborhoods. It's mostly rich whites and asians. African Americans got chased out long ago or forced into Bayview.

Asians are minorities. Also, Asian subcultures are extremely diverse - East Asian, South East Asian, South Asian, etc. You don't need every single minority involved to be called diverse.

They don't live in the neighborhoods that the HN crowd finds attractive.
