City guide

San Francisco, CA apartments for rent

Last updated

For over a hundred years, people have flocked to San Francisco for new starts, the promise of wealth, and a chance to live freely as themselves along the California coast. It has long persevered as one of the US’s major hubs of cultural change: the summer of love and Haight Ashbury hippies, Harvey Milk and LGBTQ+ culture, the Fillmore and Harlem of the West, and, of course, the rise of modern internet technology. The Gold Rush started here, and hasn’t left—much of the employment is centered around tech and startup culture, but finance and healthcare also have a large presence in the economy. But this city of just 49 square miles is far more than its Silicon Valley reputation suggests. With 37 distinct neighborhoods, 220 parks, a beach, and a bay, it has everything a much larger city does, with the added benefits of everything that surrounding Northern California has to offer: redwoods, wine country, impressive oceanside cliffs, and rolling golden hills. Locals enjoy the temperate weather, the abundance of delicious, diverse food, and the rugged landscapes that drew so many before. It might be foggy and expensive, but the colorful Victorians splashed across the gray and coastal landscape make for one of the most beautiful places in the country to call home.

What is the average cost of rent in San Francisco?

The average rent across all San Francisco apartments is $4,495. The average cost for a 1-bedroom apartment is $4,250, and a 2-bedroom is $6,200. Overall, rent prices are $899 more expensive than last year.

How much can you afford to rent in SF?

How much rent you can afford in SF depends on your income. A common rule of thumb is to spend no more than 30% of your income on rent, and you'll want to factor in your debts and other expenditures, like public transit or car payments (SF's public transit system, MUNI, charges $86 for a monthly pass). For a more personalized recommendation, visit our rent calculator page.

What neighborhoods in San Francisco should you consider?

Renters who want classic San Francisco views or Victorians can find them in Pacific Heights and Haight Ashbury. Families might like the community in Bernal Heights and Noe Valley. Park-lovers who want to be near Golden Gate Park should consider the Inner Sunset or Inner Richmond. For anyone whose primary concern is affordability, Downtown and the Tenderloin are neighborhoods with the lowest rents and make for easy commutes to the city's commercial center. But if none of these appeal, there are over 29 other neighborhoods to consider.
  • Pacific Heights
    The city's most expensive area, known for its mansions and boutique shopping.

Renter insights for San Francisco

Written by Hannah S, SF resident

The weather varies from neighborhood to neighborhood

SF is full of microclimates. West of Divisadero Street, you'll experience more fog and slightly cooler temps. East and South, like in SoMA or the Mission, you'll get more sun and warmth. Seasons are also a little different here: summers are often windier and foggier, while September and October are the sunniest and warmest of the year.

Rentals move off the market exceptionally fast

A portion of Zumper's team lives in SF, and they're seeing hundreds of people apply and show up for a single apartment viewing—and then the rental comes off the market almost immediately. Get all of your paperwork in order before you view.

Parking isn't easy, but public transportation is

While it is faster to drive from one end of the city to another, parking can be scarce and expensive. Luckily, San Francisco's public transit system, MUNI, is quite reliable (despite the impending funding deficit) and can get you from the Bay to the ocean in about an hour. MUNI is popular enough to have its own online swag shop and a local deli that has even themed its sandwich names after the various lines. BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit) and the ferries also provide easy transportation to surrounding cities.

Many of the apartments are old, charming, and a little quirky

Older buildings in SF often come with the iconic Edwardian and Victorian charm associated with the city and, if built before 1979, may also be rent-controlled (this isn’t guaranteed, though—be sure to check before signing a lease), which can be a huge perk in a city where rent has recently increased 22% year over year. It is worth noting that while charming, these older buildings may also come with the quirks of older housing stock, like beautiful but drafty original windows, which can mean higher energy bills. Make sure to weigh these details against your priorities while touring places.
