San Francisco Neighborhood Guide

San Francisco is a vibrant neighborhood that’s been evolving in the past decade. We’ve seen it change through the years from a quite small community with houses into a premium, safe, and conventional area filled with beautiful new buildings, restaurants with diverse cuisine, food trucks, and many more small businesses.

The best part of San Francisco is its proximity to Parque Omar, a gorgeous breathing space for those looking to immerse themselves in nature, admire the landscaping, or simply enjoy outdoor recreation.

San Francisco offers its residents multiple options of restaurants, bars, supermarkets, pharmacies, daycare for children and pets, and much more. Its best feature is the location, having easy access to main roads like Vía Porras, Corredor Sur Highway, Vía España, and Vía Israel.

Safety

With its thriving new infrastructure, San Francisco, Panama, has also invested in creating a safe environment for its residents. The US Department of State gives Panama a low to moderate crime rating. It suggests the same caution you would take when living in any major city. Don’t advertise large amounts of money, take your valuables out of your car, and be sure only to take licensed taxis. A little common sense goes a long way in this hospitable neighborhood.

Public Transportation & Walkability

San Francisco is a neighborhood known for its sense of convenience for day-to-day necessities. As one of the city’s main centers, it’s interweaved within a fantastic public transportation system.

Taxis also roam the streets. Be sure only to enter a licensed taxi and ask about the price upfront. Don’t be afraid to haggle a bit.

You won’t be hard up for shopping centers or grocery stores in this neighborhood. The area is replete with shopping plazas, full of every type of store you could imagine. You can find cinemas, restaurants, and retail stores all accessible in several convenient locations.
