It seems SF has figured out how to solve it's Black, Hispanic and pesky children problem. Make the cost of living SSSSOOOO high that the blacks, hispanics and families with kids flee for less expensive pastures. That way all you have left is childless whites and Asians. Hipp-Hipp-Hoorrray for liberal diversity!!! Hey White North Dakota, you ain't got nothing San Fransico!
See below blacks make up only 5% and rapidly shrinking of the SF population! Name one large US city that is below 20% (heck below 40%)!
Good job SF, you solved a problem! I mean you love equality "as long as THOSE people don't live in our neighborhoods!"
Peace brothers, don't let the door hit ya on the way out!

Newsflash: San Francisco Expensive, Minorities and Families Leaving - San Francisco - News - The Snitch
But what we have here is an extremely thorough and data-rich documentation of something anyone who was paying even the least bit of attention to city demographics knew: Families are leaving. Many minorities are leaving. Children are sparse. Property is prohibitively expensive. Hell, even we had these statistics in two prior cover stories -- in 2009 and 2011.
According to the controller's office, San Franciscans' per-capita income jumped from an already-generous $58,244 in 2004 to $74,515 [in 2008].
Of course, for many San Franciscans, those numbers represent another failure. They point to an exodus. The city's middle class is melting away faster than polar ice. With them, economists and demographers say, goes any realistic hope that voters will demand serious change in search of long-term reform.
Black people now make up barely 5 percent of the city;

Why Are Black Folks Leaving San Fran?
Today, city officials and concerned citizens are grappling with a continuing depletion of black residents in San Francisco, as many of them leave, in part, because of a wave of gentrification thats pricing them out of the market; and partly because of a sense of cultural and social marginalization at odds with the citys reputation for tolerance and diversity.
