Portland, Chicago, San Fran, Cleveland, Detriot not doing well according to a California study

Portland, San Fran, Cleveland have America's most deserted downtowns

In a recent study, San Francisco's downtown area was found to be only 31 percent active over the spring of 2022 when compared to pre-pandemic levels, with Cleveland and Portland following behind.

Pretty obvious those cities are struggling.

I’ve had a great time in three of those cities in the last 9 months. I’m headed to the fourth city (Cleveland) in October. I’m pretty sure I’ll have a good time then as well. Tots and Pears OP.

Offices, businesses, restaurants, bars, etc. The ones who survived Libby COVID restrictions are finding people aren't primed to spend time in crime infested shitholes.

Who could have ever seen that coming? LOL!

Again with the Democrat run cities bullshit. Regardless, it's how things go, some cities thrive, others slump then other cities thrive while others slump... it's cyclical... like our climate.

This isn't cyclical, however.

These are the most and least federally-dependent U.S. states

Republican-leaning states tend to be more reliant on federal funding, according to a recent study from WalletHub.

A bit of a funny article. Blames democrat run cities for why SF, Cleveland, etc. downtown activity is down. Are the cities with more downtown activity run by republicans? I thought almost all big cities were run by dems.

The author also doesn’t understand basic statistics. If a city is 100% recovered from 2019 activity, it doesn’t mean that it has 100% more activity than 2019. He’s stating some cities are more than twice as active downtown than 3 years ago. I guess I’m the idiot for clicking on the article.
