Top neighborhoods in San Francisco

  • South Of Market

    South Of Market

    What it’s like to live in South Of Market

    Urban transformation defines San Francisco's South of Market (SoMa) district, where former warehouses and industrial buildings now house innovative startups alongside luxury loft apartments. The neighborhood surrounds both Oracle Park and the Yerba Buena cultural district, offering sports entertainment and artistic programming within walking distance of most rentals. Though noise considerations exist from both highway proximity and vibrant nightlife in certain sections, the district's large blocks and wide streets create surprisingly open feeling compared to San Francisco's densely developed residential neighborhoods. The area's excellent public transportation includes multiple Muni and BART connections to broader city and regional destinations without vehicle requirements. The primary consideration remains significant unhoused population concentrations in certain sections, creating urban challenges requiring awareness when considering specific blocks within this diverse and developing district.

    What it’s like to live in Russian Hill

    Historic elegance defines Russian Hill, where San Francisco's iconic neighborhood combines architectural distinction with spectacular bay views. The district surrounds the famous Lombard Street "crookedest street" while offering genuine walkability to both North Beach dining and Polk Street shopping without requiring vehicle dependencies. Though rental rates significantly exceed city averages, the combination of exceptional location, cable car access, and architectural significance typically justifies the premium for those seeking quintessential San Francisco experiences balancing sophisticated urbanism with village-like character increasingly rare in rapidly developing areas.
