Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris has split her time between the East and West Coasts.
The vice president has lived and owned property in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Washington, DC.
See a few of the places she's called home, including her current residence: the VP's mansion in DC.
Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris is already familiar with Washington, DC.
After all, she's had a base there since becoming a senator in 2017.
Ten years before Harris became former president Joe Biden's running mate in 2020, she was elected senator in her home state of California .
Her journey into politics began when she was elected San Francisco's 27th district attorney, a position she held from 2004 to 2011. After serving as California's attorney general, she became a senator and traded coasts.
Harris, now 59, was born in Oakland, in the Bay Area, and worked as a lawyer in Alameda County. In 2014, she married Doug Emhoff , who is also a lawyer and has two kids from a previous marriage.
While the sitting vice president no longer owns any properties in the nation's capital, she does spend the majority of her time there . Representatives for Harris did not reply to a request for comment from Business Insider.
Take a look at where Harris has lived over the years.

In 2004, when Harris became San Francisco's district attorney, she bought a condo in the South of Market, or SoMa, neighborhood.
Near the San Francisco Bay, South of Market is also close to Oracle Park, where the San Francisco Giants play, and the Chase Center, where the Golden State Warriors play. (Harris is a big fan of the Warriors .)
Harris purchased a one-bedroom apartment in a condo building for $489,000, according to the listing, and sold it in 2021 for $860,000.
According to Redfin, the current median sales price for SoMa is $877,500.
The loft-style apartment has a bedroom on the upper floor and includes a patio and a fireplace.

In 2012, Emhoff bought a four-bedroom, five-bathroom home in LA's Brentwood neighborhood for $2.7 million, according to property records for Los Angeles County.
The house, which is around 3,500 square feet, has since been transferred to a trust with ownership by both Harris and Emhoff, the Wall Street Journal reported .
Zillow estimates that the Los Angeles property, built in the 1940s, is now worth more than $5 million.

In 2017, her first year as a senator, Harris bought a two-bedroom condo in downtown DC for $1.7 million.
The condo building is within walking distance of Dupont Circle, a residential neighborhood near many embassy buildings.
Building amenities include a heated rooftop pool, a business center, and a fitness center with Peloton bikes, according to its website.

Harris started her tenure as vice president with a two-month stint at Blair House , just off the White House grounds , while the vice president's mansion was being renovated.
She then moved into the vice president's residence, located on the grounds of the US Naval Observatory.
It's been occupied by the sitting vice president since Walter Mondale lived there in 1977.
The mansion, which has 14 bedrooms, is located in Northwest Washington.
The 9,000-square-foot home was originally built in 1893, but Harris made the most recent renovations in 2021.
Harris' next potential home is the White House.
If Harris is elected as the next president, she woud move about three miles across town into the White House .
