   	Well finding work is one thing. Depends on education and acquired   
   skills. Finding a job in San Francisco for a person   
   evicted from parental support before they finished HS is possible   
   but the apartment usually a studio will have to be shared because   
   rents in San Francisco are sky high. Even people with skills but   
   lower pay cannot afford to live alone.   
      
   	Generally by the way gay men have the easier time finding   
   work and housing than the transgender people and the Lesbians.   
   Bisexuals fit right in   
      
   	I can only afford to live in San Francisco because we have   
   rent control for occupied apartments and i have been here for nearly   
   50 years in the same space. Even with rent control my rent is about   
   5 X what I paid when I moved in.  San Francisco is not the only   
   larger city where we have tolerance toward LBGTQ+ people but it may be   
   the most famous and therefore we get lots of people coming here   
   to live their lives. We have all sorts of folks who come here   
   to study art and other matters from nursing to any medical   
   specialty. What we do not have is enough cheap housing to get   
   all the homeless off the streets.   
      
   	I remember when the Covid-19 restriction hit my neighbors   
   who worked in hospitality had to leave the city as the places   
   where they worked, bars and restaurants were shut down and they   
   had no income. But the apartment which likely is rented for   
   a good deal more than my own was occupied by a nice young couple,   
   as soon as it had been refurbished.
