What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Potrero Hill San Francisco

My house has been in the family for over 100 years and now is worth several million dollars. When the house was built it cost very little. The next door neighbor just bought the house next door for over 4.5 million.

It's near the ocean which I think is very cool but it makes it very cold and I like the cafe's nearby

The infrastructure of our community is very good, but the surrounding shops could be added to enrich our life.

i go to restaurants daily with my family , i go to shops with my friend twice in week to buy some food , all of shops and resturants is near in my location area

We are very close to several grocery stores which is great. We are also very close to the Chase center and the ball park to watch sporting events.
