One of the City’s most affluent communities, St. Francis Wood is an area that is almost exclusively comprised of some of the most beautiful homes in San Francisco. Located in the Southwestern portion of the City, St. Francis Wood lies just south of West Portal, with Mount Davidson on its western border.
St. Francis Wood’s planners decided from the outset to ban businesses in the area, instead favoring wide streets and expansive houses on some of the City’s largest residential lots.
