Thanks everyone for the input!

I will say that we didn't venture too much into the Haight and Castro. We went to Castro St, which was charming and the surrounding area seemed very nice. Completely missed out on going to The Mission due to time constraints, but it could be another contender.

Our biggest consideration is being away from the bigger drug use areas, as I don't want to consistently have to dodge needles. Thats why SoMa is probably not going to work. Second most important thing is walkability and transit/restaurant and grocery options.

Nob hill is just beautiful, but if it's very isolated, it might not be the best choice.

Anyway, this move is still a little over a year out so we've got time. I'll be back next spring for a conference and will definitely be looking more carefully at neighborhoods.

Thank you!
