Top 10 Startup Neighborhoods in San Francisco
View Garry's SF Guide to Where Your Startup Should Be in a larger map
Garry Tan, of Posterous fame, recently made a map of the top 10 neighborhoods for startups in the Bay Area.
Here's Garry in describing what you really want in a neighborhood:
"What you really want is: a) closeness to startup community, b) easy access to food, and c) easy transit (notice all the areas are right next to the SF transit corridor) so you don't need a car."
Specifically to San Francisco, Garry suggests three areas: expensive SoMa, affordable SoMa and The Mission. Check out his commentary on all of these.
I agree with both of his points on affordable SoMa and The Mission. He's especially spot on that The Mission has some of the absolute best food in the city. To me, it's best to start in either one of these and move into the expensive part of SoMa as you grow and scale.
All in all, a great resource for any startup entrepreneurs looking to move to the Bay Area.
Garry is also on Twitter here. Go follow him because he's got plenty of other good gems like this.
