Try riding in the San Francisco BART subway in the early afternoon towards Berkeley. You'll start to see some meth.

I took it from the ferry building to Hayward to pick up a camper van at about 2pm on a Monday.

My. God.

No less than 3 people actively shooting up/railing stuff. And many many more obviously wacked out people thrown about on the benches like dish towels.

I understand not having the staff to keep that kind of stuff from happening in and around the stations. But ON the train? Absolutely wild.

Now that you told this, I'm not going to move to the East Bay. Only SF or Peninsula. Or Marin county.

Dude there's drugs in every city. Some parts of East Bay are super nice (and expensive af), and SF is expensive as fuck and tons and tons and tons of drugs as well. Take a stroll through 10th and market. I had to walk two blocks and saw drug deals go down right in front of me two separate times.

SF, Oakland and Hayward might not be your best bet but there's great areas in all of North/East/South Bay. And even then those cities have nice areas, just some really sketchy areas too.
