Pearl St. is a narrow, short, residential street in the central part of SF. It is middle class, safe, decent housing, but not the most upscale area. It is close to a lot of shopping and restaurants on Market St., and the public transportation available on that street. I think this would be a pleasant place to live and convenient location, and a little more affordable than much of SF.

W Clay Street is in a very nice residential section of SF known as Sea Cliff. The homes here are immaculate and large but very pricey. If you are lucky enough to be able to live here, it is a very quiet area, with beautiful homes that actually have small yards, which are well manicured. W Clay is near Lincoln Park, Presidio, and Golden Gate Bridge. If you are commuting to Sausalito/Marin City for some reason this is a good location. It is far from downtown SF, but is such a beautiful, quiet, and desirable area that it is worth a commute.

Erie St. is a mostly commercial area of offices and businesses near downtown San Francisco. The surrounding area is noisy and congested, with Van Ness and the Skyway running adjacent to Erie. It is not an especially nice or upscale area, but not dangerous. There is just not much reason to go here unless you had business on this street.

Elgin Park is a small street in central San Francisco. The townhomes on this street are very nice. However, due to the location near several major streets, near Market and Skyway/Octavia, traffic can be quite noisy. This is not as expensive as many areas of SF and is still safe and has nice homes. The location is good because of its close proximity to bus and BART stops, but it can be congested.

Brosnan Street is a funny little street, it feels like a bad neighborhood, not as picturesque as much of SF, with graffiti and bars on windows. It is not really an unsafe area, it is just not the nicest. This is a very narrow one way street/alley, connecting Valencia and Guerrero Sts. The townhomes on this street range from somewhat run down and basic to newly remodeled.

Sumner Street is a quiet, nice, but very homogeneous neighborhood near the Presidio. It feels almost separated from the rest of the city, it is so quiet and has a different vibe. This is a safe neighborhood and desirable location, and the homes are well-maintained, with lots of trees and gardens. It is far from the action of downtown SF, though.

Miley St is a very short street in a desirable area of SF, in what is considered Cow Hollow, near the Palace of the Fine Arts and the Presidio area. The surrounding streets have very upscale homes and townhouses, but Miley St is much more modest. This short street off of Baker features some less picturesque townhomes, and parking and side entrances for homes on other streets. This is a very good area though, and it is a quiet street.

Missouri Street is one of the many state name streets running north and south in San Francisco. It runs through the Protero neighborhood of SF, which is mostly residential. There are some shops and restaurants, but they aer mostly casual and family oriented rather than expensive and upscale but snooty like many areas of SF. It is nice, though, and a good neighborhood for families. It is convenient to much of downtown.

Hillway Ave is a short street near the University of California - San Francisco campus. As you might expect from the name and the location, it is a very steep, hilly street. There are some very nice but expensive townhomes on this street, but also some apartments that students generally live in. THis is a nice, safe area close to campus.

Koret Way is a very short street on the University of California - San Francisco campus. Basically there is not much up here besides a couple of buildings that are part of UCSF's Department of Opthamology, and adjacent parking lots. There is a vision center as part of the opthamology department that is a good place to get inexpensive eye exams. There is a pretty good view of the city and it is right by a wooded hillside, so it is a pleasant setting, but there just isn't much reason to go up here unless you are going to the eye center.
