San Francisco Sunset District Parkmerced Apartments

San Francisco Sunset District Parkmerced Apartments

Sunset district is the part of San Francisco that is next to the ocean, basically the whole west part is mostly sunset.

Why is it called sunset?

Because the sunsets and you can see it everyday if you live in a high rise apartment or a house on a hill.

Of course, you can always head over to ocean beach too.

Parkmerced is a big complex of high rise apartments in the SF Sunset district area.  This is where I live.

Now, Parkmerced is actually adjacent to San Francisco State College, which makes it great place for college students to live but you do have to face some party noise and lots of construction.

Although I do have my complaints, it’s not that bad when you live on the top 12th floor.

So, if you ever decide to go live at Parkmerced, make sure to get 12th floor.  (The best time is around Summer time between July and August, you should be able to get a 12th floor apartment with an ocean view. )

Right now, I pay about $1800 in rent plus covered garage parking for a spacious 1 bedroom apartment.  The living room is fairely large and diamond shaped so it’s nice.

Sunset district is much cheaper than anywhere else in the city plus there’s lots of really cheap to-go chinese food as there are so many chinese restaurants, they are all competing so you pay less.

Sunset is also a lot less crowded and there’s more parking.  But, don’t expect it to be easy, anywhere in the city it’s a tough contest to find parking.

Other than the view, I guess my next plan is to move out right next to the Ocean and get a small house someday so I can walk to the beach.

Here’s some shots from the 12th floor at Parkmerced:
