The quintessential San Francisco coastal residential retreat: the location offers peace, quiet, strong community ties, and immediate access to two of the city's greatest natural assets—the ocean and Golden Gate Park.

A Nature Lover's Paradise

The primary draw is the unparalleled access to nature. Residents in Outer Richmond District is just blocks away from both the sprawling 1,000+ acres of Golden Gate Park and the stunning, windswept coastline of Ocean Beach. This offers a unique city lifestyle where hiking, running, dog walking, and beach activities are daily options.

Quiet and Residential

Unlike the busier, more commercial Inner Richmond, the Outer Richmond is overwhelmingly residential. The streets are generally calm, lined with classic two- to three-story row houses and California bungalows, many featuring handsome early 20th-century architecture. You will rarely find high-rise buildings here.

Transit

While geographically distant from downtown, the neighborhood is well-served by MUNI bus lines, including the 5 Fulton route, making commuting manageable.
