I'm part of a group called the "North Mission Neighborhood Association" and we have seen the beginnings of efforts to push the less savory denizens of 6th St. toward 16th and Valencia and environs. The 20-somethings that go down there are probably similar to the whites who went to Harlem back in the 20's and 30's when it was full of nightclubs and bands. They get the thrill of transgression while they are young enough to outrun a lot of the people in the area.
