OK so We're a young couple and The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Should I be concerned?

I've lived in Sunset for about 15 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.

it's improved dramatically in recent years. When I first moved here from Seattle, I was surprised by job market. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.

A few things worth knowing:
- Low crime in most neighborhoods
- Nice parks and green spaces
- The community vibe scene is average

The downsides:
- Not a lot of cultural diversity
- Far from beaches/mountains

Overall I'd rate it 8/10 for couples. Hope this helps!.
