Lavish San Francisco living
Pacific Heights is a land of San Francisco extravagance — where stunning classic homes are as common as eight-figure price tags. This is considered one of the priciest slices of the city. But access to this area comes with proximity to prime shopping opportunities, top-notch restaurants, popular parks and, of course, lovely views of the city. “It has everything,” says May Warren, owner of Warren Estate Sales, which has a consignment showroom on Pacific Heights’ Fillmore Street. “It’s conveniently located.” Plus the crime score here is better than the national average, according to the CAP Index.

Well-preserved architecture all around
Many Pacific Heights’ homes were built between the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Owners through the years have finely maintained the houses’ exteriors and updated their interiors, helping make these homes sought after despite their age. Styles here vary quite a bit, from Victorians to Edwardians to Georgians. A lot of these homes come with intricate woodwork, stout brick exteriors or both. The average square footage for single-family houses in Pacific Heights is almost 4,700, more than four times the average square footage for homes across the city. However, there are also quite a few condos in the neighborhood, some perched in high-rise midcentury buildings. Condo prices can start at just over $1 million, and single-family home prices often begin at over $6 million, while some of the more expansive options easily push over $12 million or more. Some of the houses in Pacific Heights are Hollywood famous, appearing in “Mrs. Doubtfire,” “Princess Diaries” and “Party of Five.”

Scratch the retail itch on Fillmore
A lot of the homes in Pacific Heights are a quick walk away from Fillmore Street, a bustling thoroughfare lined with storefronts for all sorts of boutiques, well-known brands and restaurants. Locals can stop in places like rag & bone, Athleta and jewelry store Trabert Goldsmiths before grabbing a bite to eat at a place like SPQR, a favorite for Warren for its gourmet Italian food. Warren is a 10-time Michelin star recipient.
The Snug, meanwhile, is a more casual spot for grabbing a burger and a drink, complete with a plentitude of outdoor seating. "It's a big, upscale neighborhood joint that gets pretty packed on the weekends, so I prefer to go at off-peak hours and just hang at the bar or outside at the street, where I can just people watch 'til the sun goes down,” says longtime San Francisco resident David Lytle, former editor of the city's now-defunct 7x7 Magazine. “The sunsets up there are amazing, and the cocktails are really on point, a really creative, global-inspired lineup.” Locals also have Mayflower Market on Fillmore, which is convenient for grabbing quick groceries or a deli sandwich.

Feel the music on Fillmore
Fillmore Street is more than just a shopping and dining destination — it’s also home to an annual tradition in the Fillmore Jazz Festival. The Fillmore Jazz Festival takes place over two days in July and features multiple stages, hosting dozens of acts. This extravaganza is considered the largest free jazz festival on the West Coast.

I'd say it's mostly white, demographically. More dogs than children, and mostly extremely rich people. It's a bit jarring to live there. The food and facilities available are usually incredibly expensive.
