"Definitely A Chill SF Neighborhood"

The Nob Hill area has several separate regions due to the fact that there's a gigantic hill in the middle. Along Polk St there's lots of restaurants, bars, shops, etc. A few blocks south in the Tenderloin is great, cheap food but with the cost of going through all the homeless. Cable cars run from Nob Hill to the Financial District and Fisherman's Wharf, making for great work or weekend rides. Due to the hills, there generally aren't too many bums and the streets are relatively clean by SF standards. Car break-ins aren't intense, but they definitely happen still.

Overall, a very fun atmosphere with lots of diversity. Close to lots of areas with many opportunities around every corner.
