Perched on a hillside above the gritty, funky streets of San Francisco’s Mission district, Bernal Heights feels a world removed from the city below. And that’s exactly the way the locals like it.
Bernal isn’t the next neighbourhood in San Francisco; it’s the last neighbourhood in San Francisco,” says Reema Bahnasy, a public relations executive who moved there when she returned from a stint abroad in Singapore last year. “It’s almost like a secret hiding place.”
...Bernal has a quirkiness to it that appeals to some and not to others,” Droubi concludes. “But once people land there it becomes cult-like.”

I've lived on Winfield for years and have heard whisperings about a mansion that is available for parties and weddings. That's the last secret - Where is it? What's it called? Do you know MJ?
