determining why so many people want to live in the city of san francisco

Explanation:

Qualitative data focuses on non - numerical, descriptive information. Determining why people want to live in San Francisco would involve gathering descriptive insights (e.g., cultural attractions, lifestyle, etc.), which is qualitative. The other options involve numerical data (e.g., percentages, impacts on time which can be quantified, climate - visitation which can have numerical correlations like number of visitors per month, air pollutant levels which are numerical).

Determining why so many people want to live in the city of San Francisco.
