Yes, more people make state or local minimum wage, but we don’t have numbers for that. But still, if you raise SF minimum wage a few dollars, it affects few people because the median is $96k (half of SF residents make more than this)

It’s not surprising raising minimum wage doesn’t cause job losses because increasing it by a lot hadn’t been tried
