About Outer Sunset

The Outer Sunset is the avenues west of about 30th, running down to Ocean Beach. Housing is almost entirely two- and three-bedroom flats above garages, which is exactly why it's the best value in San Francisco for roommates — you get real bedrooms and a kitchen you can cook in instead of a converted living room.

Getting to work from Outer Sunset

The N Judah runs the length of the neighborhood to downtown in roughly 40-45 minutes; the 7 and 29 buses connect east and to the Mission. A lot of Outer Sunset roommates work hybrid specifically because the commute is long, or drive to Peninsula tech campuses down Sunset Blvd and 280.

Who shares apartments here

Surfers, remote and hybrid tech workers, UCSF staff, nurses, and families — noticeably more long-term and less transient than the Mission or SoMa.

The trade-off

It's foggy and cold most of the summer, and you're a real trip from downtown nightlife. In exchange, your rent share is often $400-600 lower than the Mission for more space and a two-block walk to the ocean.
