Bancroft/Adams - 6

Centered on the Adams Avenue corridor, 92116 spans Kensington and Normal Heights—a leafy, historic pocket of central San Diego with Spanish Revival bungalows, vintage neon neighborhood signs, canyon views, and a relaxed, walkable rhythm. Days are mild and sunny year-round, and residents stroll to coffee at Lestat’s or Dark Horse, groceries at Vons in Kensington, pints and pizza at Blind Lady Ale House, cocktails at Kensington Club, and indie eateries and boutiques along Adams. Ward Canyon Neighborhood Park (with a popular dog park) and nearby canyon paths invite quick outdoor escapes, while bike lanes and frequent buses keep you car-light; I-8, SR-15, and I-805 make commuting simple, and Downtown is a short drive. Community life revolves around the Adams Avenue Street Fair and weekly happenings at cafes and bars, drawing a mix of long-time locals, young professionals, and families in a friendly, pet-loving scene. According to recent Zillow market trends, the median asking rent sits around $2,900, with typical listings in the past few months ranging roughly $2,200–$3,800.
