Definitely nots:
Anything Richmond or Sunset--too far.
Marina--too yuppie, I'm leaving the Northeast...don't want to find it in SF again.
SOMA is trying too hard to be New York...and San Francisco is not New York. Definitely not worse, but different.
Possibles:
Mission/Cole Valley/North Beach?
Thoughts? Comments? Corrections? Anything I've missed?

Not sure if you already found a place, but I'll add Glen Park to the list if you like Noe Valley. Close access to the Glen Park BART, J MUNI line and short walk to Noe Valley. Lots of new great restaurants opening too. Good luck on your search!
