3.The Haight-Ashbury district initially drew hippies living in San Francisco because of its low-rent, large Victorian homes, and proximity to Golden Gate Park.
4.But by 1967, the neighborhood drew the attention of young people from all over the U.S.

6.By that summer an estimated 100,000 people had converged into the neighborhood.
7.Haight-Ashbury quickly faced a huge problem, it could not accommodate the rapid influx of people.
8.The neighborhood had issues with homelessness, drug use, and crime.
