I just went and looked up 'San Francisco empty residences'... it's somewhere between 40,000 and 60,000 depending on where you look. I then looked up 'San Francisco homeless population'... somewhere around 8,000.

I am not convinced of the narrative that there isn't enough housing.

Those 40,000 - 60,000 "residences" are not necessarily available or even occupy-able. And the number of homeless is very like an under-estimate[0].
