San Francisco County New Home Information

New home residents living in the City and County of San Francisco live in the fourth most populous city in California and the 14th most populous city in the United States. The county of San Francisco is unique in that it includes only one city and a number of islands and neighborhoods within its relatively small 46.7 square mile radius with nearly 765,000 residents in the area. Among the most densely populated cities in the country, San Francisco is part of the San Francisco Bay Area, which is home to more than 7.1 million people. The city is located at the tip of the San Francisco Peninsula, with the Pacific Ocean to the west, San Francisco Bay to the east, and the Golden Gate to the north.

Several islands are part of the city, notably Alcatraz, Treasure Island, and the adjacent Yerba Buena Island, together with small portions of Alameda Island, Angel Island, and Red Rock Island. Also included are the uninhabited Farallon Islands, 27 miles offshore in the Pacific Ocean. The mainland within the city limits roughly forms a "seven-by-seven-mile square," a common local colloquialism referring to the city's shape.

San Francisco has a Mediterranean climate enjoyed by its new home residents with dry summers, mild year-round temperatures and plenty of sunshine. Temperatures vary little throughout the year. On average, temperatures exceed 75°F a mere 28 days a year.

San Francisco is a popular international tourist destination famous for its landmarks, including the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz Island, the cable cars, Fisherman's Wharf, Coit Tower, and Chinatown, its steep rolling hills, and its eclectic mix of Victorian and modern architecture.

The performing arts and entertainment sector of San Francisco is some of the city's highlights. The War Memorial Opera House houses the San Francisco Opera as well as the San Francisco Ballet, while the San Francisco Symphony plays in Davies Symphony Hall. The Herbst Theatre stages an eclectic mix of music performances, as well as public radio's City Arts & Lectures. The Fillmore is a music venue located in the Western Addition. The American Conservatory Theater (A.C.T.) has been a leading force in Bay Area performing arts since its arrival in San Francisco in 1967, regularly staging original productions. San Francisco frequently hosts national touring productions of Broadway theatre shows in a number of vintage 1920s-era venues in the Theater District including the Curran, Orpheum, and Golden Gate Theatres.

The Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) houses 20th century and contemporary works of art, the Palace of the Legion of Honor holds primarily classic European works of art, while the city's De Young Museum and Asian Art Museum have significant anthropological and non-European holdings.

Other attractions include the Exploratorium, a popular science museum dedicated to teaching through hands-on interaction. The California Academy of Sciences is a natural history museum which also hosts the Morrison Planetarium and Steinhart Aquarium. The San Francisco Zoo maintains more than 250 animal species, many of which are designated as endangered.

New home residents enjoy professional sports including the NFL's San Francisco 49ers at Candlestick Park and the National Baseball League's San Francisco Giants at AT&T Park.

Tourism is the backbone of the San Francisco economy and attracts the 4th highest number of foreign tourists of any city in the U.S. claiming Pier 39 near Fisherman's Wharf as the third-most popular tourist attraction in the nation. With over 30 international financial institutions, six Fortune 500 companies, and a large support infrastructure of professional services—including law, public relations, architecture and design—also with significant presence in the city, San Francisco is designated as one of the ten Beta World Cities. The city ranks fifteenth in the world's list of cities by GDP and eighth in the United States.

Many new home residents send their children to public schools run by the San Francisco Unified School District as well as the State Board of Education for some charter schools. Lowell High School, the oldest public high school in the U.S. west of the Mississippi, and the smaller School of the Arts High School are two of San Francisco's magnet schools at the secondary level. Higher education is a top priority for San Francisco County and includes such respected institutions as: The University of California, San Francisco - solely dedicated to graduate education in health and biomedical sciences; The University of California, Hastings College of the Law - the oldest law school in California; San Francisco State University; City College of San Francisco; University of San Francisco; the San Francisco Art Institute; the Academy of Art University; the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, the only school of its kind on the West Coast; and the California Culinary Academy, associated with the Le Cordon Bleu program.
