Market Statistics by Realtor District

As mentioned in previous reports, market dynamics in San Francisco are often – but not always – separated by price segment as much as by neighborhood/district location. More expensive segments not unusually have somewhat softer supply and demand dynamics. However, District 5, one of the city’s more expensive districts, has been bucking that trend in 2019.

Districts dominated by condo sales also typically have softer dynamics than those dominated by house sales.
