\""People are coming from all over place --- Sacramento, Lake County, Bakersfield," Fire Chief Jeanine Nicholson said. "We have also heard that people are getting released from jail in other counties and being told to go to San Francisco, where you will get a tent and then you will get housing."\
\
As an example, Nicholson said that up to 75% of the estimated 100 campers living in tents along the Fulton Street side of the Asian Art Museum appear to have come to the city with the hope of getting a hotel room.\"\
