CBS San Francisco May 27, 2022 New data released from the U.S. Census Bureau reports San Francisco had the largest percentage drop in population in the U.S. from early on in the pandemic to last summer. Workers and experts say the appeal outside the city is only increasing for current residents. "When the pandemic happened, I was just really focused on living in my shoebox environment. And COVID gave me a chance to look for a bit more space," said Tim Wong, who works in the tech industry. "I definitely think we're missing a bit of culture and things to do, but there's some pretty darn good food here in the South Bay."
