In Marin, median household income is $115,000. It’s also the whitest county in the Bay Area, with 66% of its population identifying as non-Hispanic white.

But there’s one Marin neighborhood that’s less than 5% white. sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl…
This neighborhood is the most racially segregated in the Bay Area, according to a new analysis by the Othering and Belonging Institute. sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl…
Here are the racial demographics of the Bay Area's 10 most segregated neighborhoods in 2020, according to the UC Berkeley research organization: sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl…
The divergence index used in the analysis isn’t perfect: It doesn’t take a region’s overall diversity into account. But it does pinpoint some of the starkest examples of segregation in the Bay Area. sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl…
Chinatown, one of the 10 most segregated neighborhoods, is 89% Asian.

As Chinese immigrants entered S.F. in large numbers in the late 19th century, many experienced racism outside of Chinatown. Over time, the area became a segregated enclave. sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl…
Most neighborhoods on the list are disproportionately Black and Hispanic compared to the overall Bay Area. sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl…

California, the U.S. coronavirus hot spot early this year, in recent weeks has recorded some of the lowest case rates in the country — lower than some states that are more vaccinated.

One clear example is the New England states of Vermont and Maine. sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl… Image
As horrific as the winter surge was, with hospitals overwhelmed and death rates hitting pandemic peaks, experts say California emerged from it with a relatively significant amount of natural immunity. sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl…
Experts stress that case rates are just one data point — and that a more telling metrics at this point are hospitalizations and death rates, which are low across the board in both California and New England due to the power of vaccines. sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl… Image

The projectwould have allowed property owner Fifth Church of Christ, Scientist to knock down an existing structure and replace it with a 13-story group housing complex. A church would have been built on the ground floor. sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl…
While the project was backed by some pro-housing advocates, it was opposed by several prominent neighborhood groups that argued the area lacks larger family-size units with full kitchens and private bedrooms. sfchronicle.com/bayarea/articl… Image
Supervisor Matt Haney, who represents the Tenderloin, said he worked with planning staff to see if the unit sizes could be increased while still meeting the group housing definition. In the end, it couldn’t be done, he said.
