FROM A MAP TO A BETTER DECISION
Pick two or three areas, then define what the home must do: layout, access, outdoor space, parking and your regular routes. Visit the same blocks at different times. A neighborhood name cannot answer those property-level questions.
Keep ownership types separate when comparing costs. A condominium, tenancy in common and single-family home can have different financing, maintenance and shared-building obligations.
Confirm the home’s current MLS classification before choosing the search area for comparable sales. Then compare the actual ownership interest, permitted space, condition, access, outlook and timing. Avoid treating a district-wide average as a pricing conclusion.
Organize property records and anticipated ownership costs before positioning the home. Shared repairs, inspection findings and the evidence behind improvements can matter more to a buyer than a line on a neighborhood map.
Tell Diamond Real Estate Group which areas you are considering. We can help confirm the current MLS classification, identify relevant neighborhood guides and organize a focused buyer or seller comparison.

San Francisco uses ten numbered real estate districts. Lettered subdistricts identify smaller areas: for example, Inner Richmond is 1B, Noe Valley is 5C, and Pacific Heights is 7B. This directory contains 90 areas in SFAR’s February 2026 broker-tour list.
The mainland shapes reproduce DataSF’s SFAR August 2010 reference geography. Names and codes were checked against SFAR’s broker-tour directory, updated February 12, 2026. Those checks do not establish that the historical polygons match every current MLS address assignment. Ask Diamond Real Estate Group to confirm the exact property in the current MLS, especially at a boundary.
No. MLS districts organize real estate search areas. Postal ZIP codes, electoral districts, school assignment areas and zoning maps serve different purposes and can cross MLS district lines. Check each applicable boundary separately for the address.
The DataSF file labels Lower Pacific Heights 6F and Mount Davidson Manor 4R, duplicating codes used by other areas. SFAR’s February 2026 directory lists them as 6C and 4N. This page uses the SFAR codes while retaining the original DataSF neighborhood shapes.
SFAR lists Treasure Island as 9T in District 9. It is included in the search and directory, but the 2010 DataSF file contains no Treasure Island polygon. The page opens its guide without inventing an island boundary. Yerba Buena neighborhood 9G is a separate mainland MLS area.
The map shows neighborhood reference areas, not live listings, prices or availability. Open a neighborhood guide or the San Francisco buying guide to plan your search, then request a current property search for your chosen areas.
An area code is a starting filter, not a valuation. A useful comparison matches ownership type, permitted living area, condition, parking, outdoor space, building obligations and sale date. A nearby sale across a district line may be more comparable than a dissimilar property inside it.
Use the labeled search and district filter, then select Show on map in the directory. Focus the map to pan with arrow keys, zoom with plus or minus, and press Home for the city view. With JavaScript unavailable, the map image, district and neighborhood links, buyer and seller guidance, and full directory remain available.
SOURCES & METHODOLOGY
Boundary polygons: DataSF Realtor Neighborhoods, using its underlying dataset 2kjj-ysvr GeoJSON. DataSF describes this as SFAR August 2010 geography. The file contains 89 coded mainland areas and three uncoded park areas; it has no Treasure Island polygon.
Area names and codes: SFAR’s San Francisco district/subdistrict directory, updated February 12, 2026. Lower Pacific Heights is corrected from the DataSF label 6F to 6C, and Mount Davidson Manor from 4R to 4N. Treasure Island 9T is searchable and linked without a fabricated boundary. The directory follows the 90 areas in that SFAR list.
All source polygon vertices are retained and projected for display, with coordinates rounded to one-tenth of a display unit. This verifies fidelity to the cited historical source; it does not verify a current address assignment. District colors group the source’s neighborhoods. Parks have no MLS code in this file.
SFAR’s boundary guidance explains that cartographic lines may differ from the division of physical addresses. Confirm an exact property’s classification in the current MLS. This page is an original Diamond reference tool and is not an official SFAR service, parcel survey, school assignment map, zoning determination or live listing feed.
