"Trendy, safe neighborhood"

If the Mission district’s that slightly dirty, still-can’t-get-it-together older brother that everybody loves even though he’s a little rough around the edges, Mission Dolores is his polar opposite younger sister: upscale, safe, trendy, casually cool, but ever-so-slightly annoying for not being just a little more edgy. It draws about as much character from the Castro on its west side as it does from the Mission to its east. And that’s okay! But seriously, M.D., edge up a bit.
