Neighborhood

🏡 Overview & Location
Westwood Highlands is a small, residential neighborhood on the southwest slope of Mount Davidson (San Francisco’s highest natural point). Bordered by Sunnyside, Westwood Park, Saint Francis Wood, and Sherwood Forest, it occupies a compact hillside area with sweeping views of the city, bay, and — on clearer days — the Pacific Ocean.
Developed mainly in the 1920s as one of the city’s early planned residential communities, its design emphasizes curving streets and a more park-like, suburban feel compared to many San Francisco neighborhoods.
🏘️ Housing & Architecture
Westwood Highlands is composed almost entirely of detached single-family homes, many built between the 1920s and 1930s with architectural styles like Mediterranean, Tudor Revival, Spanish Revival, and some contemporary designs. Lots tend to be larger than typical San Francisco parcels, with front and back yards and driveways or garages — a rarity within the city.
Homes range widely in size (often 1,500–3,000+ sq ft) and price, with values generally above the city average due to the neighborhood’s desirability, views, and suburban character.
🌳 Community & Lifestyle
Vibe: Quiet, peaceful, and residential — Westwood Highlands feels more like a suburban enclave within the city. Residents often describe a calm, neighborly atmosphere with many long-term homeowners and few rental properties.
Outdoor access: The neighborhood is adjacent to Mount Davidson Park, with wooded trails and panoramic outlooks. Nearby green spaces and walking routes make it appealing for those who enjoy nature and outdoor activity without leaving the city.
Walkability & transit: Walkability is moderate to limited due to steep hills, but key commercial and transit corridors (like Monterey Boulevard and West Portal Avenue) are a short walk or quick drive away, offering shops, cafés, restaurants, and several Muni stops.
Parking & traffic: Parking is generally easier than in many parts of San Francisco thanks to garages and driveways, and local streets are low-traffic and calm.
🏫 Demographics & Quality of Life
Though primarily residential, the neighborhood is close to:
