SSF is probably the most misunderstood city in the - 6/21/2013
It's amazing, but many, many people, including people who live in SF, think that SSF is just a part of SF. Not true. We're right across the highway from SFO, which is actually in Burlingame. But it is really nice to have SF only 10 miles away, the beaches even closer. The climate is great but it gets pretty windy from wind off the ocean when the sun starts to go down. It's quiet here, and a little less expensive, and most of the homes here are around 40 years old, but there is, of course, new construction too.

One of them took the life of a very dear friend. Everyday it's hard, but I've been able to maintain this far so I'm gonna keep surviving. But one good thing about living here are the low income Read More

Schools could be better - 5/12/2006
This was originally a blue-collar community several decades ago. In the SF Bay Area, it is not known for its high-quality public schools, K-12. So.SF has a number of parochial schools and/or is within driving distance of a few others. Many parents choose parochial over public. The city's two high schools are not well-respected for student academic Read More
