  • I'll take you on a tour of one of San Francisco's best neighborhoods, North Beach! Home to Little Italy and right next to Fisherman's Warf and Chinatown, North Beach is really in the center of it all! We'll walk you through some of the most important things in a neighborhood like; housing costs, restaurants, groceries, public transportation and what there is to see and do in North Beach! Finding a place to live can be incredibly difficult if you haven't explored the area, hopefully this neighborhood tour can help you figure out where to live in San Francisco!
    NOTE: This video was shot before CA ordered shelter in place due to Coronavirus. Stay home, stay safe and we'll beat this together!

    Rian, I am so glad to see such an honest video of North Beach as well as an expression of love for the neighborhood. It was also nice to see my actual home featured in your video almost a dozen times! I have been so thankful to live in North Beach over the past few years, and miraculously my rent is affordable and I am a mere 10-minute walk from everything I need (including my place of work). I count my blessings every day because with the world the way it is right now, I am fully aware that my ability to stay here can easily disappear. This neighborhood gives me the best of all I want/need in San Francisco, and you better believe I am going to fight to stay. Thank you so much for this beautifully shot video, and it would be a pleasure to pass by your awesome faces the next time I'm walking about 😊

    Crazy expensive, and a beautiful and famous neighborhood--but one facing tough changes like many others. Some small businesses have a hard time thriving. Excellent walk score. Your video is comprehensive with beautiful drone shots and shows touristy sites, but the most important thing about North Beach is its history. This neighborhood is more cohesive than others in SF because locals are dedicated to it. On the other hand, for younger people it can feel more stuck and less open to new influences. I think locals prefer it that way.

    Regarding 1:29, San Francisco's oldest Street "Grant Avenue" was not its original name which used to be called Dupont Street in honor of U.S. Navy Commander Samuel Francis Du Pont of the USS Cyane during the Mexican-American War which liberated California in 1848. During the California Gold Rush days, its name was Dupont Street. However after the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake, Chinatown was rebuilt and Dupont Street was renamed for President Ulysses S. Grant. In Chinatown, Grant Avenue is still called "Dupont Street" in the Cantonese language.

Unfortunately, people are not exaggerating... it indeed has turned into a disgusting place to live. Pee and poop everywhere so intense you can taste it in the air. The sense of fear and anger there is terrible, along with the fake activists. Think before you move there. I honestly do not recommend moving there... This is coming from a Bay Area Native.

      Here are a couple of videos that provide a far more honest view. This has nothing to do with politics, as I believe the second guy is a democrat. I'm just mentioning this because I don't want anyone saying I must be some Republican saying this because I hate SF. I lived in the Bay Area my entire life, and I'm not wealthy; I am a bartender. I have no reason to lie. The truth is SF is terrible. Some areas are more protected, like the Marina, for example, you won’t see homeless as much, but those areas are more expensive, so the police keep them out. Even so, it's become such a problem that the nice areas are becoming worse. If you travel to SF now or anytime during the pandemic, you won’t see the homeless, but that’s only because they are being housed in hotels right now.
      On top of that, they have bedbugs, and bedbugs are the most difficult to kill. You need hardcore chemicals, and they infest like crazy. No one is talking about that and the mess that’s going to cause.
      I've been attacked in broad daylight in the financial district; I've been flashed outside of my apartment, I've witnessed multiple people shooting up in front of restaurants as well as seen hundreds of needles scattered on the ground, witnessed drug deals right next to a park meant for kids with needles all day long, I know a guy who was beaten so badly he ended up in a coma in the hospital after being robbed, I've seen multiple people go in and take whatever they want from the store and leave, I've seen cars all up and down the street with smashed windows, I've seen people poop and pee right in front of me... I could go on and on... I've never lived in such a terrible place, and I hope never to return. Lol, I'll stop rambling... I hope the videos give more insight.
