Becoming A LocalOwning In Richmond
Once a stretch of windswept sand dunes known as the “Outside Lands,” the Richmond grew into a residential neighborhood in the early 1900s, especially after the 1906 earthquake sent San Franciscans westward. Today its streets are lined with well-kept Edwardians and mid-century homes, and its Inner and Outer halves each have their own character, from the busy shops and restaurants of Clement Street to the quieter, foggier blocks near the ocean.
Its location between two of San Francisco’s largest green spaces, easy bus connections along Geary Boulevard to downtown, and a strong sense of community draw buyers looking for a more residential pace without leaving the city. Add one of the Bay Area’s most beloved food scenes, independent landmarks like Green Apple Books, and cultural treasures such as the Legion of Honor, and it’s easy to see why so many locals put down roots here.
