I drove into SF on a vacation and within two hours had my car broken into in a heavily populated area. I spent the rest of the time that I should have been enriching the city with my tourism dollars on the other side of the bay bridge trying to find glass repair and cleaning glass out of the car while my family sat in a hotel room.

We sent a police report into the void knowing from several other anecdotes that nothing will be done.

We have no interest in going back, and wouldn’t recommend it to others.

How is that healthy for a city?

For what it's worth, the same thing happened to me 18 years ago. Pull-out car radios (remember those?!) were practically mandatory for a time. SF has always been a den of smash and grab thieves.
