Hi, neighbors.... I settled in the Inner Sunset 41 years ago, because it had "a village feel"... My daughter lives, now, in "Huron Village", a part of Cambridge, Mass. A big part of the "vibe" there is because the residents feel like they are part of a Village, not just a district.
Villages raise a child. Villages take care of their members. Villages have a more "family feel". A "district" can be huge, like the entire Sunset, of which the Inner Sunset is just a part. To promote the "family feel", I think it would be good to intentionally adopt the term "Inner Sunset Village".
Laurel Village, for example, has much more cohesiveness, for being named a Village... Same for Lakeside Village, between 19th Ave and Junipero Serra Blvd. If we thought of ourselves as a Village, we would sponsor teams, and clubs, etc. ( I hope.) I will be trying to see if this has any traction, starting with the next meeting of the Sunset Hts. Assoc. of Responsible People. (sharpsf.com)..
