Types of apartment in San Francisco, CA
San Francisco apartments range from bay-window Victorians and Edwardians to stucco mid-rise buildings and newer glass apartments. In the north, Pacific Heights, Nob Hill, Russian Hill, and North Beach often have older facades, shared entry stairs, and narrow lots. In the Mission, Noe Valley, Castro, and Haight-Ashbury, many apartments sit in small multi-unit buildings or flats over garages. Around SoMa and Mission Bay, apartments are often in large newer buildings with elevators, package rooms, and shared outdoor space. Houses for rent show up in the Sunset and Richmond on the coast, often with boxy fronts and garage parking at street level.Exterior details change fast by area. Marina buildings often have 1920s and 1930s details, while Bernal Heights and Potrero Hill can have simpler wood siding and small porches. Inner Sunset and Glen Park often mix single-family houses with duplexes and small apartment buildings. Many older apartments have hardwood floors, tall windows, and little closet space. Many newer apartments have in-unit laundry and open kitchens, but they can have less character from the street. Hills, stairs, and tight lots shape many buildings across the city, so layouts can feel compact.
