Population and Household Growth, 1970Population and Household Growth, 1970--2000 2000
Key Findings:
ÿ Between 1970 and 1980, the Bay Area grew much more
rapidly than San Francisco (both population and households).
Households grew at a faster rate than population in the
region.
ÿ Since 1980, population growth has been more rapid than
household growth.
ÿ San Francisco lost population between 1970 and 1980, while
the number of households increased slightly.
ÿ Between 1980 and 1990, San Francisco’s population started
to grow again, but at a slower rate than for Bay Area.
ÿ During 1990s, the pace of population and housing growth
picked up in San Francisco, but was still slightly slower than
for Bay Area overall. Household growth was slightly more
rapid than population growth in the City during the decade.
Limitations of the Data: Relies on accurate enumeration by the
Census.
Indicator Description: Growth in total population and
households for San Francisco and the Bay Area since 1970.
Differences between population and household growth rates
usually indicate changes in household size.
Geographic Areas Covered : City of San Francisco and Bay
Area region, comprising Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa,
San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Solano, and Sonoma
Counties.

California.
Key Findings:
ÿ San Francisco’s median age is older than the state’s, with a
median of 36.5 years compared to 33.3 years for California in
ÿ The population of both the City and the State has been aging
gradually; San Francisco’s median age was 34.1 in 1980.

than California as a whole, and the number of children in the
City has decreased even though the overall population has
increased over the last two decades.
ÿ San Francisco has a higher proportion of seniors 65 and
older than the State.

Key Findings:
ÿ San Francisco has a racially diverse population, with Whites
and Asian/Pacific Islanders being the two largest groups.
ÿ The City’s African American population declined by
approximately 18,000, or nearly one-fourth, between 1990
and 2000.

the total decreased. Asian/Pacific Islanders increased by

specify more than one race, an option not available in 1990; this
amounted to 3% of the 2000 population. Persons of Hispanic

Household and Per Capita Income, 1989Household and Per Capita Income, 1989 -- 2000 2000
Indicator Description: Income of households and persons,
1989 and 2000.
Geographic Areas Covered : City of San Francisco and State of
California.
Key Findings:
ÿ Incomes in San Francisco are rising more rapidly than
statewide. Household income in the City rose 71 percent
between 1989 and 2000, over twice California’s rate.
ÿ The City’s median household income in 2000 was above
statewide levels, a reversal of 1989, when the statewide level
was higher.
ÿ Per capita income is over 40 percent higher in San Francisco
than for California.
ÿ Despite San Francisco’s overall relative affluence, the
proportion of households with incomes under $15,000 is
about the same as statewide.
Limitations of the Data: Household income data from 2000 are
estimates from the 2000 Census Supplementary Survey; final
Census data based on a larger sample are not yet available. Per
capita income data for 2000 may be overstated because of
exclusion of group quarters population.

Household Income by Tenure Household Income by Tenure
Limitations of the Data: American Housing Survey data based
on a sample of only 1,842 households for San Francisco and thus
have a wider margin of error than decennial Census data. In
addition, data are weighted based on 1990 Census, which
introduces additional potential for error; note that as a result, total
household counts differ from other sources.
Key Findings:
ÿ The median household income of owner households is higher
than city median, while renter median income is lower than
city overall.
ÿ Almost 12% of owners and 25% of renters earned less than
$15,000 in 1998.
ÿ For the income categories between $25,000 and $49,999, the
share of all owners and all renters is very similar.
ÿ Although few renters fall into the $80,000 to $99,999 income
category, the highest income category, of $100,000 or more,
has a substantial proportion of renters in it (almost ¼ of all
renter households).

Household Size by Rent Control StatusHousehold Size by Rent Control Status
Indicator Description: Comparison of household size for
occupied rent controlled units and market rate units.
Geographic Areas Covered : City of San Francisco.
Key Findings:
ÿ Average household size for market rate units in San
Francisco is 2.26 persons, compared with 1.94 for rent
controlled units.
ÿ Nearly half of rent controlled units are occupied by one
person. Only 36% of market rate units have only one
occupant.
ÿ 19% of market rate units contain households of four or more
persons, compared with only 11% of rent controlled units.
Limitations of the Data: AHS sample size is relatively limited
(895 rent controlled units and 265 market rate units) and
weighted based on 1990 census data, leading to potential margin
of error. See Appendix for methodology for classification as rent
controlled or market rate units. Note that some units do not fall in
either category (e.g., public housing), and are not shown here.

Key Findings:
ÿ The median annual household income for households living
in rent controlled units is lower than that for market rate units.

annual incomes below $50,000 than households in market
rate units.

Indicator Description: Household income distributions by age
category, for rent controlled units only, 1998.
Geographic Areas Covered : City of San Francisco.
Key Findings:
ÿ There is considerable difference between the
incomes of different age groups in rent controlled
units.
ÿ Elderly renters in most places tend to have lower
incomes than other renters, and this pattern holds
for San Francisco’s rent controlled units. The
median 1997 household income of elderly renter
households is very low, at $15,000.
ÿ The age group with the highest incomes is the 25 to
34 age group, with a median 1997 household
income of $65,400.
Limitations of the Data: 1998 American
Housing Survey sample size is relatively
