One of the most densely populated cities in the world by what measure? It's barely top 10 in the United States (depending on how you define 'city'). Hyperbole won't win any arguments here.

Back to the topic at hand, something's seriously amiss if you believe that San Francisco's Rent Control Ordinance and other regulations have nothing to do with the issue. I believe it's a perfect storm of undesirable rental conditions -- high population, high regulation, and high demand. I'm interested in hearing an argument to the contrary.
