Now, bear in mind that we were doing the standard tourist trip - cable cars, Alcatraz, Giants game etc - so we didn’t walk through the Tenderloin at midnight - but the parts of the City that we saw were very clean, and I probably saw about a dozen homeless folks in total over 4 days. That’s not an exaggeration. Our friends loved it
Obviously the City has massive problems - but for tourists I couldn’t fault it and we would definitely go back.
Very expensive though!!!

Glad you got to go to a Giants game. A really incredible park to watch a game in with some great views.
