Anza Vista is a mixed-use pocket of the city, its quiet residential blocks sitting comfortably alongside larger commercial development. Residents have easy access to one of the city's few large big-box retailers — Target, anchoring the City Center complex at Geary and Masonic — along with Trader Joe's just across the street. With its central location, residents are never far from the small, independently owned businesses for which San Francisco is well known.
The neighborhood sits on a hill with a somewhat somber past: it was once the site of San Francisco's Calvary Cemetery, cleared after the city banned new burials within its limits in 1901. Most of the graves were relocated to Colma by the early 1940s, and residential development followed in the late 1940s and into the 1950s, giving rise to a mix of architectural styles that today spans Mission Revival to Mid-Century Modern.
One of the anchors of the neighborhood is the Kaiser Permanente Medical Center and Hospital on Geary, offering members everything from routine visits and physical therapy to a round-the-clock emergency department.
People drawn to Anza Vista tend to want a quieter home base without giving up city access. Small pockets of shopping, dining, and entertainment sit right at the edge of the neighborhood, and its position along several of the city's transit lines makes getting downtown, or onto a freeway, straightforward.
