By David Mamaril Horowitz | Will Jarrett, Mission Local September 27, 2021 San Francisco's population grew by 8.5 percent over the past decade, primarily due to the rising Asian population, according to an analysis of the 2020 Census Data.

Its population almost doubled, from around 9,000 to more than 17,400 residents in just ten years, an indication of how much the Mission Bay development plan has been realized.
