San Francisco County, California
San Francisco County is tiny in size. It’s just the city. But what a city! It has those iconic hills, cable cars, and the Golden Gate Bridge.
Each neighborhood has its own vibe, from the hipsters in the Mission to the old money in Pacific Heights. It’s crazy expensive to live here, but there’s always something going on.
Despite its small size, the population tops 800,000. This makes it one of the most densely populated cities in the United States. Interstate 280 and Highway 101 are the main routes in and out.
Major attractions in San Francisco County are Fisherman’s Wharf, Golden Gate Park, and Lombard Street. It’s crowded and chaotic, but there’s nowhere quite like it.
