"Nice tree-lined street, good neighborhood conveniences"

Hayes Street in North Park is mostly residential but has some good neighborhood businesses dotted along it. Including grocery/deli stores every few blocks, a couple of good independent coffee shops, a bike shop and various hair, nail & beauty salons on the 3 blocks between Masonic & Cole.

"Convenient, quiet neighborhood with a strong community feel"

Before I moved to the area, I went to an appointment at St Mary's and was struck by how quiet it was in the blocks surrounded by Masonic, Stanyan, Fell & Fulton. Since moving here I haven't been disappointed, it's a really good neighborhood with a strong community feel. We've lived here 11 years and many of our neighbors are long-term residents. It is very conveniently situated near Golden Gate Park and other areas: Haight/Ashbury, Cole Valley, Divisadero, Lower Haight, Inner Sunset, Laurel Village & Inner Richmond. And it has some great neighborhood spots of it's own: Abacus, Papalote, Central Coffee & Tea, Bistro Central Parc to name a few. Also, the Lucky Supermarket, Trader Joe's and Whole Foods are close by. We work in the city and haven't owned a car for 7 years - there are plenty of car-sharing pods in the area when we need one.
