A no-frills neighborhood
At the turn of the twentieth century, Outer Mission was a largely rural neighborhood that yielded crops like Swiss chard and potatoes. When the Great San Francisco Earthquake of 1906 significantly disturbed landscape, it recovered, began to urbanize and would eventually transform into the small, residential neighborhood it is today. “Outer Mission is a no-frills kind of neighborhood. It’s not trendy or hipster like other parts of San Francisco. It’s much more low-key,” says Corcoran Icon Properties Realtor Tim Gullicksen, who has sold homes all over the San Francisco area. From its many casual restaurants to its beautiful parks and highly rated schools, Outer Mission is modest and comfortable living.

Homes here typically remain on the market for 21 days, which is nearly half the national average of 42 days.
