If you check out the data set here (https://app.openaxis.com/visualizations/13172), you'll see that the chart is referencing San Francisco as a city

It’s the same entity. It’s the “City and County of San Francisco” so the city data by definition includes spending and debt that would normally be accrued at the county level. So not an apples to apples comparison.

Contrast is terrible, words are hard to see.
"Major American Cities"*

Thanks for the feedback! If you click the link to the chart (https://app.openaxis.com/visualizations/13172) and hit "new chart" under it, you can correct the visualization and repost it!

At the risk of chiding, this should probably be "American cities".

I wouldn't be surprised if the top 10 debt per capita cities in the world were in the US tbh

What kind of debt is it? I feel like mortgages alone would be bigger, but maybe not.

Having income per capita as a bar-in-bar would provide some scale. Some cities may have high debt but also high income.

San Francisco is both a city and a county. Doesn’t that distort its ranking vs other cities?
