Around Visitacion Valley
Clean streets provide a multitude of housing options with a variety of pricing. Single-family homes offer yards for children, giving the neighborhood a more potent sense of community than in the high-rises of central San Francisco. Architectural styles can be seen from common Victorian homes to new construction. Housing is most desirable closer to the Schlage Lock Factory Redevelopment Project, an area of the neighborhood improved to include remodeling, commerce, and general street beautification.
Don't expect a lot of lavish options here. This neighborhood is all about food and flavor at reasonable prices, not ambience. The locals here are very passionate about their favorite eateries and don't mind them being untouched by tourists. Authentic ethnic choices are abounding. Try Luen Fat on Leland Avenue for bargain meals and memorable Chinese dishes.

Think close-knit. Everybody is a regular at these local bars. It's less about the trendy single scene of other neighborhoods and more about pulling up a stool and telling the bartender about your day.

Walk across the street to another local hotspot, Vesuvio's, and admire the eclectic crowd of artists and poets, and is known for their former regular, Jack Kerouac.
