Merced Girard Residential Care Facility - Unclaimed

Portola occupies a sunny southeastern hillside in San Francisco, with residential streets, garden plots and views toward the city and bay. The neighborhood’s horticultural roots are still visible around the San Francisco Recreation and Park Department’s Greenhouse and the nearby University Mound Nursery area. McLaren Park, just to the south, offers broad trails, open space and playgrounds, while neighborhood streets connect to local shops, cafés and casual dining along San Bruno Avenue. The area has a quieter, more residential feel than the city’s central districts, with everyday errands often centered on nearby commercial corridors. Buses provide connections across San Francisco, and access to major roads helps with trips beyond the neighborhood. For ZIP code 94134, which covers Portola, the median rent is $3,650 per month, with a typical range of $950 to $5,600, based on 23 active listings.
