New Study Finds San Francisco To Be Worst Run City In U.S.

According to a new WalletHub study released this week, San Francisco is the worst-run city in the United Stated, followed closely behind by Oakland and Gulfport, MS.

Directly quoting WalletHub:

“We can learn how well city officials manage and spend public funds by comparing the quality of the services residents receive against the city’s total budget. Using that approach, WalletHub compared the operating efficiency of 148 of the largest U.S. cities to reveal which among them are managed best. We constructed a “Quality of Services” score made up of 36 metrics grouped into six service categories, which we then measured against the city’s per-capita budget.”

When it came to the city services score, San Francisco ranked pretty high, coming in 24th. San Francisco actually came in first when it came to resident health, having the lowest infant mortality rate, 12th in infrastructure and pollution, and 15th when it came to education. However they also faltered heavily in other categories, including being all the way down at 101st when it comes to overall safety and 133rd in it’s economic rank.
