Yes, SF is literally the most walkable city in America: https://www.walkscore.com/cities-and-neighborhoods/

You can always tell who has never actually been there and only hear about it through Fox lol

The sidewalks exist, but can you walk on those sidewalks, and feel safe doing so?

I've been to downtown Los Angeles several times. It's pretty bad. From what I have heard (including from San Francisco residents), San Francisco is probably worse.

I have spent 2 months in SF over my life and have never felt unsafe while walking anywhere. My last trip there I walked probably 10 miles/day on average, including through some worse neighborhoods, and 1) the walks are way nicer than anywhere I’ve ever lived before 2) never felt unsafe.

Did see a few guys smoking crack lol but you see those type of people in every city if you walk around enough.

I currently live near downtown Los Angeles and it’s 100% worse than SF, but still tolerable. SF is just so beautiful, it’s hard not to have a good time there. Not so true for LA lol.
