A note on the map

Real geography. A different perspective.

The map retains all 117 named areas and the original polygon vertices from the city’s SF Find Neighborhoods dataset, including parks and islands. Its isometric view follows real ground elevation while retaining the underlying neighborhood boundaries. Treasure Island and Yerba Buena Island appear in a separate inset.

Hills and shading use Mapzen Terrain Tiles, accessed November 12, 2026. United States 3DEP, GMTED2010 and SRTM data courtesy of the U.S. Geological Survey; global ETOPO1 courtesy of NOAA. Heights are lightly smoothed and exaggerated about two times for readability. The islands retain a north-up view with terrain shading.

SF Find describes general neighborhood locations, not hard lines of demarcation. Neighborhood names and boundaries vary between residents, the city, and real estate data providers.

Market figures & photographs

Know what you’re looking at.

Market figures are saved website snapshots. Each selection shows its reporting period and source. Provider-defined market areas can differ from the city polygons. An unavailable neighborhood report is shown as unavailable.

Neighborhood photographs are sourced from Wikimedia Commons, and the citywide photograph is by Lucas Beard. Source and license details are accessible beneath each image. Their recorded camera locations are checked against the mapped areas. Photographs may be historical. Photo framing and location notes are retained with the credits.
