The Excelsior is the most diverse neighborhood in San Francisco. Almost at the border of Daly City, between Glen Park and Bayview. Formerly an all Italian and Irish catholic neighborhood, it now has people from everywhere, there is no racial majority or minority at all. this can be confusing and make people feel outnumbered - but by who? The point is, why feel outnumbered just because you dont see people just like you? Why not just enjoy all this culture we can access?Its got wide streets, lotsa sun, and 78% homeownership - the highest in the city. Residents care about their houses and want more parks and fun places for our zillions of kids. Heavily populated - at 6pm the place is flooded with blue collar types dragging home the kids and the groceries. Yeah, there are white folks here just like there are Samoans and everyone else. They all work hard for the American Dream of a cool house full of cool stuff and cool people to enjoy it with. These people are gonna rule the world one day. Oh, and Jerry Garcia grew up here. We hold a festival in Maclaren Park for him and all the cool folks who grew up in the Excelsior.
"Lets go to the Excelsior to have bubble tea and eat pupusas and catch a free show at on thursday at Mama's Cafe."
