NY Times - In search of reasonable rent, the middle-class backbone of San Francisco — maitre d’s, teachers, bookstore managers, lounge musicians, copywriters and merchandise planners — are engaging in an unusual experiment in communal living: They are moving into dorms.
Shared bathrooms at the end of the hall and having no individual kitchen or living room is becoming less weird for some of the city’s workers thanks to Starcity, a new development company that is expressly creating dorms for many of the non-tech population.
Starcity has already opened three properties with 36 units. It has nine more in development and a wait list of 8,000 people. ... Starcity said it was on track to have hundreds of units open around the San Francisco Bay Area this year, and thousands by 2019.

I've learn a few excellent stuff here. Definitely price bookmarking
for revisiting. I surprise how much effort you place
to create this sort of magnificent informative web site.
How Soviet.
Sounds like a cleaned-up version of an SRO, and old welfare hotel. San Francisco has fully stratified into elites and bums.
