north beach 🥰

I love North Beach, but dollar-for-dollar, you'll do much better in Russian Hill--and the other side of the hill from North Beach. To me, the spaces I'd find in NB were cramped and not as well kept, despite being in the same price ranges as those in Russian Hill.

NB is also not very well served by transit, though its location is maybe the best in the City and that doesn't matter as much.

Another consideration, at least pre-pandemic, was the "B&T" factor in North Beach. It was real. People come in from all over to party, go to strip clubs and generally remove a lot of the neighborhood charm of North Beach on weekends. Great restaurants, iconic bars, and a very cool vibe that gets dragged down by a suburban and even Central-Valley/tourist onslaught on the weekends.

Better to live up on Russian Hill and enjoy North Beach on your terms... and the Marina, Cow Hollow, Pac Heights, etc.

Are cover letters important if they don’t ask for one?

If I should be writing one, any advice how to format?
