San Francisco, California is a major port-city on the Western seaboard of the United States.
It is the Charmed Ones's home and has a result attracted many forms of evil.
Piper once joked regarding the number of warlocks that attack them, "What, are we like in the Warlocks Guide of San Francisco?" ("PreWitched")
Another time, Phoebe asked Paige worriedly that it seemed like all of San Francisco was acting weird. Paige jokingly responded "Besides, everybody is odd in San Francisco, that's why we fit in so well!" ("Sand Francisco Dreamin'")

Trivia
Edit
- Charmed is primarily set in San Francisco, though usually filmed in Los Angeles. Every episode contains establishing shots of the cityscape with such notable landmarks as the Golden Gate Bridge and the Transamerica Pyramid.
- Although never filmed there, several scenes are set in Golden Gate Park, located near the Golden Gate Bridge.
- The episode titles "Sin Francisco" and "Sand Francisco Dreamin'" are, of course, references to the city.
- Several times during establishing shots of the city, the Embarcadero Freeway is visible. While the bridge did run along the San Francisco Bay, it was demolished in 1991, seven years before Charmed even began airing. Still, these scene's were used because of the limited stock footage. Brad Kern and Jim Conway made a comment on this during the audio-commentary of Still Charmed and Kicking. Much of the footage stock comes from '80s television series.
