San Francisco Bay Area is a Region in California at latitude 37°36′00.00″ North, longitude 122°09′00.00″ West.
The San Francisco Bay Area is a geographically large mix of urban, suburban and rural areas usually comprised of nine California counties: Alameda County, California, Contra Costa, Marin County, California, Napa County, California, San Francisco, California, San Mateo County, Santa Clara County, Solano and Sonoma.

This larger CSA contains 7.46 million people — the sixth-largest CSA in the US.

OSM in the wild
Some of our neighbors in the Bay Area have recognized the care we've put into local coverage and have switched to OSM to take advantage of it:
- AC Transit uses an OSM-based Mapbox map for its online route maps.
- San Francisco Muni displays an OSM-based Mapbox map overlaid with live bus trackers on an LCD screen at hundreds of bus shelters. [1]
- SamTrans and Caltrain use an OSM-based Mapbox map for their online route maps.
