"The whole intersection. It's the worst intersection in San Francisco, most drug-filled intersection. Anyone who comes here knows the truth and that is the city allows activities that go on in the Tenderloin that would never be allowed in the neighborhoods."
"What I don't like is when he says we're really committed to clearing our streets of drug activities and we don't see any progress."
"The last administration did start sweeping the streets, cleaning the streets providing programs, and I think that’s continuing."
San Francisco officials report a declining crime rate and fewer homeless encampments, yet residents in the Tenderloin express that their daily experiences remain unchanged. The intersection of Jones and Ellis streets is highlighted as a significant area of concern, with ongoing issues of drug use and homelessness. Randy Shaw from the Tenderloin Housing Clinic emphasizes that the conditions in the Tenderloin would not be tolerated in other neighborhoods. While some residents acknowledge efforts by Mayor Lurie, others feel that tangible progress is lacking.
