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.

    Mission District

    What it’s like to live in Mission District

    Latino culture thrives in this vibrant barrio where Balmy Alley's ever-changing murals document social justice movements. Renters love 24-hour taquerias but note persistent street parking shortages near 24th Street BART Station during commute hours.

    North Beach

    What it’s like to live in North Beach

    Italian heritage permeates North Beach, where San Francisco's historic neighborhood combines European café culture with Beat Generation literary landmarks creating distinctive urban character. Apartments often occupy historic buildings with architectural details unavailable in newer construction, though typically featuring smaller floorplans reflecting the district's development era predating modern spatial expectations. The neighborhood's position adjacent to both Financial District employment and Telegraph Hill greenspace creates ideal balance for professionals seeking atmospheric living with minimal commuting requirements, though evening noise from the area's popular nightlife destinations requires consideration for light sleepers.
