What kind of word
when i left New York to come to San Francisco five years ago, i had many conflicting emotions.
During my first year in San Francisco, I wondered whether I did the right thing by leaving.
After living here for five years, I now realize that I made the right decision.
What kind of word is 'living' this sentence? None or Verb?
when i use this words 'After have been living here' the meaning is different?

In that sentence that you used, the term "LIVING" would be a noun.
1.) "After living here for five years" and 2.)"After have been living here"
the first one is used present to past tense. while the second one is past to future tense.
[confused? well lets put it this way, the term AFTER AND BEEN are both past tense therefore, you used that phrase and made it a double negative.] which makes both sentences completely different ^^
I hope this answers your question and able to solve your curiosity. (I'm not sure if its correct, but i tried... hehe)

After living here for five years, I now realize that I made the right decision. (VERB )
The second one is the same in meaning

base on the your sentences:
leaving-(verb)means left, depart or went away
living- (verb)means being in one's position right now at this moment..

In the first sentence "living" is a noun.
In the second is a verb and it is the same meaning really.
