Am I reading right that average rent is somewhere around $2500 (roughly £2000)?

You'll see wild swings in these numbers depending on how specific you're being about the type of place being rented and even between services doing the reporting.

Here's a March 2019 article from CBS bay area (based on data from the rental site Zumper):

"Median 1-Bedroom Rent In San Francisco Soars To Nearly $3,700 A Month"

"Elsewhere in the Bay Area, San Jose’s median rent for a one-bedroom was $2,540 (5th highest in the country), while in Oakland it was $2,320 (9th highest)."

That would be on the expensive side of renting a room, and on the very cheap side for a place to yourself.

That sounds low, but I guess it includes areas well outside of San Francisco? All the apartments in SF and nearby seem to start around the high $3000s
