San Francisco’s post-pandemic economic recovery thrashed by national headlines. Now, a new study has identified the lagging return as one of the country’s worst.
San Francisco’s economic comeback from the COVID-19 pandemic has been one of the worst in the U.S., according to analysis released on Tuesday.
The only other Bay Area region in the study, San Jose, placed 16th. Meanwhile, Austin was the top city, followed by Dallas, Denver, Tampa and Miami. Baltimore was the only area that finished behind San Francisco. Don't believe tech workers are back in SF?

Lastly, San Francisco collected $96 million less in sales tax revenue in 2021 than 2019, the largest downturn by any large West Coast city. That's reflected in The City's low hotel and air travel revenue, which the study said trailed “competing tourist destinations.” San Francisco finished as the worst region in terms of “economic activity.”
