You need to be more specific about what you mean by "quality of life", or else there's no way to address your question, which is actually rather mystifying.
You should also specify whether you're talking about SF proper, or the bay area more generally.
Incidentally, most gang crime is confined to other gang members, so that's probably not a real concern. Similar for murders.
(Not a SF resident, formerly lived in Oakland part-time, still visit SF proper frequently, now live in a part of LA which is near the turf of several street gangs.)
