Employee Living

Working at SFSU, employees enjoy a variety of housing, transportation and lifestyle choices available in San Francisco and the greater Bay Area region.

SFSU employees enjoy fulfilling lives both on and off campus. One of the biggest benefits of working here is the region itself — with excellent public transportation and vibrant neighborhoods, employees have flexibility in where they live, how they commute and the lifestyle they lead.

A few popular neighborhoods close to main campus include Stonestown, Inner and Outer Sunset, Outer Richmond and Parkside. Many SFSU employees live in Daly City and Pacifica (a quick drive to campus), while others commute from the North, East and South Bay.

Faculty and staff may be eligible for the limited number of University apartments available in University Park North and University Park South, two complexes right next to campus. Employees interested in these options should talk to Employee and Family Housing.

Living throughout the Bay Area, SFSU employees commute to campus via public transit, car or bike. Multiple Muni lines come to SFSU from SF neighborhoods and BART, for folks who live further away. Faculty and staff who drive can purchase virtual permits to park on the campus parking lot. Parking and Transportation has additional information about public transit systems, biking and more.
