The neighborhood east of Dolores Street, with mural-lined alleys, Victorians, and the Valencia and Mission Street corridors.
The Mission is one of the oldest parts of San Francisco, built up around Mission San Francisco de Asis, the 1791 adobe church most people call Mission Dolores. Much of the neighborhood's housing predates the 1906 earthquake and fire.
24th Street is one of the neighborhood's two main commercial streets. Murals line Balmy Alley and Clarion Alley.
Valencia Street is the other, a corridor of restaurants, bars, bookstores, and galleries. Dolores Park, on the northwest edge, has downtown views from the top, with Mission High across the street. Housing runs from Victorians near Dolores to flats, condos, and converted buildings deeper into the flats.
Many buildings here are rent-controlled or tenant-occupied.
Two BART stations sit on Mission Street, at 16th and at 24th, with trains to downtown, the airport, and the East Bay.
The 14-Mission and 49-Van Ness/Mission run the length of Mission Street, the 12-Folsom and 33-Ashbury/18th cross it, and the J-Church streetcar runs along the western edge by Dolores Park.
Valencia Street and the 24th Street corridor have restaurants, coffee, and shops. Street parking is tight.
Many Mission homes are Victorians, Edwardians, and early flats.
San Francisco's rent control and tenant protections apply to many buildings here. Many are sold tenant-occupied, and tenancy-in-common (TIC) ownership is common.
For condos and flats, the documents cover the HOA budget, reserves, minutes, and any litigation.
