Noe Valley Now Ranked # 1 For Trick-Or-Treating


Thanks to the real estate cheerleaders VP of Marketing & Communications at Zillow for ranking Noe Valley the number one trick-or-treat destination in San Francisco. Since Zillow also ranks San Francisco as the number two city in the nation for same that makes us pretty cool. After ranking number two last year, Noe Valley has worked hard for the top spot.

How did we do it?
...the Zillow Trick-or-Treat Housing Index was calculated using four equally weighted data variables: Zillow Home Value Index (ZHVI), population density, Walk Score and local crime data from Relocation Essentials. Based on those variables, the Index represents neighborhoods that will provide the most candy, with the least walking and safety risks.
We're also thinking huge amounts of free candy provided by Noe Valley merchants might have something to do with it...

  1. Zillow's formula fails to consider the most important variable: how far can you get a kid to walk up and down hills? Answer: not very.

    With two kids I can tell you that we don't trick or treat here in our own neighborhood. Going door-to-door in the hilly part of NV simply does not work; there are no kids walking around so nobody hands out candy or anything else. Maybe in the flatlands along Sanchez and Church you get more but we don't. And we will NOT go down 24th Street; that's just WRONG!

    So we head to the Castro; very kid-friendly...and adult-friendly (sure I'll have another glass of wine friendly neighbor!).

  2. Kids trick-or-treat like crazy down by the Upper Noe Rec Center. The end of Sanchez, south of 30th, is full of kids non-stop for hours. I have literally seen vans pull up, open the doors, and let dozens of kids spill out. Fun!
