The neighborhood
This thematic map shows the population levels of African Americans in San Francisco.
Hunters Point is in the extreme southeastern part of the city with the highest
concentration of African Americans in the city.
Hunter's Point is a neighborhood strung along the main artery of Third Street from India
Basin to Candlestick Point. The neighborhood's population has changed over the years --
a traditionally Black community established around blue-collar jobs and reasonable
housing prices has recently seen a declining African American population, due to
gentrification. The African American population has attempted to stay in place but some
have moved to other Bay Area cities, notably Antioch, Oakland and Richmond while
Latinos, Asians, and whites represent a growing part of the neighborhood.
Murals featuring African American pride are common in Hunters Point.
Prostitution and illicit drug sales occur on the streets and gun violence is common. Of the
130 homicides committed in San Francisco in 2003 and the first seven months of 2004,
25 -- or 19 percent -- occurred in Bayview-Hunters Point. [1]
