Neighborhood highlights

The Crocker-Amazon district is a neighborhood that truly has it all. With its four playgrounds, renovated soccer and baseball fields, and McLaren Park - the second largest park in San Francisco, second only to Golden Gate - residents here are never lacking in outdoor activities. Whether you're looking to jog or hike, take a dip in the public pool, play a round of golf, or catch a concert or festival at the Jerry Garcia Amphitheater, McLaren Park has something for everyone. And if you're looking to venture a bit further out, San Bruno State Park is just a short drive away.

But it's not just the great outdoors that make this neighborhood special. Thanks to its unique climate of sun and fog, residents here enjoy some of the most varied weather in the city. And if you're lucky enough to snag a bedroom with a view, you'll be treated to stunning vistas of downtown San Francisco. The architecture here is equally diverse, with homes ranging from the classic Victorian and Edwardian styles to the more modern Marina and Mid-Century Modern designs.

Of course, no neighborhood would be complete without its share of commercial businesses, and Crocker-Amazon doesn't disappoint. Geneva Avenue and Mission Street, which border the neighborhood, offer everything from produce markets and independent cafes to 24-hour Safeway and Walgreens. So whether you're looking for a quiet morning coffee or a late-night snack run, you'll find everything you need just steps away from your front door.
