Perennially perched at or near the top of lists of America’s most expensive and affluent cities, San Francisco is increasingly out of reach for people who would be card-carrying members of the American middle class elsewhere. VICE Money spent a day with a state university professor to see how her family of four deals with the city’s high cost of living.

She said that San Francisco has a car culture? It's 7 miles by 7 miles. A car is a "nice to have," but certainly not.a "need to have."
Give her a copy of the Automatic Millionaire and get rid of that $2.50 coffee.
I am trying to connect to preschool teachers in San Fran.
Can someone help …or contact me?
San Francisco is the best
I love living there
Some of those houses first floor after the terrible earth quake is still under ground unless they fixed it. The ones that had a park across the street. Where that favorite show always used at the beginning of each opening of the show. ..
But I wanna live in Cali so bad😩😩😩😩😭😭😭😭😭😭
What job does her partner do or is she the only family breadwinner?
Imagine making 6 figures and still needing roommates 💀
Why did she keep saying her partner?
It’s not worth it nowadays.
Never go full Biden
It doesn’t cost anything if you are a junkie. they give you free syringes, money for you dope and anything else they need is free at your local Walgreens.
At that point I would just move out of state. 🤓
I used to live in Oakland and only VISITED San Francisco for a meal now and then. Sausalito was nice too! In Oakland, living was cheap. The Chinatown there was just the right size. How many places to eat does one person need?
I live in the Bay Area . It’s too expansive.
San fran is cold and expensive im good in Hawaii just hot and expensive
LOL, the state should not help you with child care, if you can't afford to have kids, don't have kids
lol, this is 2017, SF is a joke now
The same feeling in LA
The government needs to change how people live. Like little hosing available in the city areas
Show me that single dad apartment that's like 4 feet wide
My children are grown but no way would I raise my kids in San Francisco or anywhere in California. So how do you feel now living in a city with an open-air bathroom?
Can someone tell me which is the place or home is in thumbnail
What a difference a few years make. Now days, San Francisco people can not wait to get out of that hell hole.
I hate san francisco, they are Distroying Lake Tahoe
I am still willing to consider the possibility of living down in San Francisco some day if the state Of California will just get it's act together on this cost of living problem. Otherwise I am gonna select Seattle or Portland, Oregon as my future dwelling if not some other beautiful albeit more affordable American big city.
Because San Francisco is a beautiful city and I want to make it a possible future home of mine but not while there is this problem with unlimitedly skyrocketing housing and rental costs not just in San Francisco itself but California as a general whole.
This is why we must promote more multi residential buildings, but Californians are against that for some reason
From someone who lives in the city, it costs a fucking lot
She's really grinding hard, and I applaud her for surviving in this tough housing crisis. But her day care costs are equivalent to almost half her rent, so if she can get it for free through her university somehow, she'd be a lot better off! San Francisco is beautiful, and she deserves to live comfortably with her family. It's a shame rent is so crazy here
100k low income😂 I wouldn’t even be able to afford a plastic spoon there
