SSF is a City of contrasts. It has two,
distinctly different parts, residential stretched between hills of
Westborough and Hwy 280 through the aging down town to Hwy 101. Across
the Hwy 101 there is distinctly different industrial part with high
office buildings hosting computer, software and biotech companies. It is
an important hub of the US biotech and dubbed by some – a birthplace of
the industry (Genentech was created and is headquartered in SSF).

And
then there is a fog. It is fascinating to watch different patterns of
fog coming from Daly City over San Bruno Mountain. You can have a sunny
day while your neighbor might be all day surrounded by fog. And while
patterns are predictable the shapes are always different.
For
those who don’t know – South San Francisco doesn’t border with San
Francisco on the North. It is separated from the City by Daly City,
Colma and Brisbane.
City of South San
Francisco houses also fall in two to two major parts. Older houses in
and around the downtown and modern development on the outskirts of the
City and San Bruno Mountain State Park.
