Neighborhoods
Bernal Heights is a family oriented neighborhood that's located only 20 minutes from downtown by bus, car, or BART. Extremely safe neighborhood but petty crime is on the rise so please keep your valuables close to you.
Enjoy access to Precita Park (3 min walk) and Bernal Heights Park (10 min walk but uphill).
The Mission District is next door and there are lots of nice shops and restaurants on Valencia Street (from 16th to 24th Streets) you can explore.
The best modes of transportation are the BART metro (at 24th Street & Mission Street), and Uber/Lyft ride-sharing. You can also download apps to rent electric scooters and mopeds located throughout the city.
When in doubt please don't hesitate to reach out to me. Cheers!
