Because I can get a lot here in say, NC for $250. By no means everything, but I'd be living nicely to put it simply.

There's no land to build on. The city and county of San Francisco is on a peninsula, and I'd say up to 1/3 or the city is parks. The building is worth something, but the land is worth more. There's also the issue of units available to rent, and there aren't many. Luckily there is excellent public transportation to the East & South Bay, and north to Marin and Sonoma counties, so people buy homes where there is room to build and commute.
