Before I worked out with a trainer, I was at 16% (four years ago?), then I was at something around 12% a year and a half ago when a trainer last estimated for me. But I'm sure things changed, especially in the last six months when I added weights and started shoveling calories in to curb hunger.
I'm happy with my strength gains but will want to reconfigure BF. Over the last couple of weeks I've cut to somewhere between 1800-2400 cals depending on if it's a workout day, and a couple of months ago I began doing a brief CF workout or cardio session post-weights on non-heavy CF days. Only diminished a couple of pounds on the scale, but I've also seen strength gains so would hesitate to point to weight as an accurate reflection of reducing BF.
What do you suggest as the best way to estimate BF? The trainer used a mixture of weight, height, and calipers.

And where is this crossfit location? I may join a xfit one day. But I want a big one like San Francisco or something with lots of IELs.
My fitness center is in Florida, Georgia, and Puerto Rico, so nowhere close to San Francisco. And I would guess it is not the size you're looking for, tho the location I visit has plenty of IELs benching and squatting sick amounts of weight at 75% ROM. Not sure what more you'd be looking for
