San Francisco, one of the country’s most politically far-left cities, is showing the slowest post-COVID pandemic recovery of any major U.S. or Canadian city, according to newly published data.
The University of Toronto’s School of Cities this week released its “Downtown Recovery Rankings,” which were based on the change in level of foot traffic in dozens of North American cities from before the pandemic to afterward.
Specifically, researchers used mobile phone trajectory data to examine the number of visits to 62 downtown areas, comparing recent activity in the largest cities across the U.S. and Canada to pre-pandemic levels in 2019.
According to the study, San Francisco ranked dead last in recovering from the COVID pandemic, when downtowns around the world became unrecognizably quiet and lifeless due to lockdown measures. Indeed, the far-left California enclave this spring experienced only 32% of the foot traffic seen during the spring of 2019. The number was identical when compared to the winter (December 2022 through February 2023) of the same period in 2019.
SAN FRANCISCO PROFESSOR COMPLAINS ABOUT ‘PSYCHOLOGICAL COST’ OF STORES LOCKING ITEMS TO PREVENT THEFT
The results came a little over two months after San Francisco launched a costly $6 million ad campaign in a bid to attract tourists and business travelers — one of many efforts by the city, led by Democratic Mayor London Breed, to revitalize downtown.
