Definition

For coverage purposes, metro San Francisco is San Francisco, CA together with every incorporated community within 49 miles that is closer to San Francisco than to any other metro anchor — 27 communities and about 2,498,349 people beyond the core city. Communities are assigned to their nearest anchor, so the boundaries follow travel distance rather than county lines.

Geography

The anchor sits at 37.7749°, -122.4194°. Coverage extends in 6 compass directions from it, reaching 49 miles at its furthest. The largest surrounding community is Oakland, CA — 406,253 people, 8.3 miles east.

Climate

Between October and April the San Francisco area averages an overnight low of 48.9°F and reaches 38.9°F at its coldest, with 46 days below 45°F — about 1.5 months. A cat’s thermoneutral zone starts around 86°F against a typical indoor 64–72°F, so those are the months an indoor cat here is actively hunting for a heat source.
