The statistics are so garbled and the platform so confusing on FactFucker--I honestly believe I have seen stats backing up both the Examiner and the Bay Citizen!

Here is how I read the charts--whites increased in number but decreased in percentage:

2000
White (alone): 385,728 -- 49.7%
http://factfinder2.census.gov/faces/...html?fpt=table

2010
White (alone): 390,387 -- 48.5%
http://factfinder2.census.gov/faces/...html?fpt=table

Interesting tidbit: SF added 30,000 units of housing over the last ten years! Links are the same as above, hopefully they work.

2000
Total housing units: 346,527
Occupied: 329,700 (95.1%)

2010
Total housing units: 376,942
Occupied: 345,811 (91.7%)

EDIT--looks like the bookmarks do not work, so I'll just say that is where I retrieved the info around 3:45pm today. Sorry--I don't know how to make FactFucker work well.
