San Francisco Office
The United States Attorney's Office for the Northern District of California is based in San Francisco. The San Francisco office serves the counties of San Francisco, San Mateo, Marin, Napa, Sonoma, Mendocino, Del Norte, Lake and Humboldt, which have a combined population of 2.74 million. In all, there are approximately 80 civil and criminal Assistant United States Attorneys ("AUSAs") who work in San Francisco and an administrative staff of approximately 52. The AUSAs represent the United States in federal court before 13 United States District Judges and six United States Magistrate Judges who sit in the Phillip Burton Federal Courthouse in San Francisco.
San Francisco is one of the world's great cities and lies at the point where the San Francisco Bay meets the Pacific Ocean. It has a very diverse population and economy, from the banks and law firms of the Financial District to the entrepreneurs in Media Gulch to the artists of SOMA (South of Market Street) to the small business owners in Chinatown to the tourism industry at Fisherman's Wharf. San Francisco, despite its glittering reputation, also has underprivileged areas such as the Tenderloin and parts of the Mission and Hunters Point. Like all large cities, San Francisco suffers from violent crime and narcotics trafficking.
