San Francisco
The official cultural, financial, and commercial center of Northern California is the City and County of San Francisco. A 2016 census estimated San Francisco to be the 13th-most populous city in the United States and the 4th-most populous city in California. This is the city that practically invented the LGBT community in the fight for equality. It’s a culturally rich city filled with an appreciation for people, art, history, and sight seeing. San Francisco is a popular tourist destination thanks to its eclectic architectural mix, cool summers, steep rolling hills, five major banking institutions, landmarks, and more. The Golden Gate Bridge seems to be a favorite landmark for people to visit. San Francisco is a beautiful and exciting city to live in or visit for all ages.
