[QUOTE="baklava, post: 2105459, member: 40182"] It's still considered a good job with good pay, it's just what you can get for your money. SF is beyond astronomical, the peninsula and San Jose areas are extremely expensive as well. I drive in SF but I chose to buy a house in the East Bay (basically Oakland suburbs) and commute to work. My 3 bed, 1 bath 1000 sq ft fixer-upper cost $400K, and I was lucky to get it. It would have easily been $600K in the peninsula and even more in the city. I'll deal with the morning commute to not be house-poor. My hours are long so I have no traffic on the way home. With all the Chinese investors and techies paying cash, it's extremely hard to buy a house out here...renting is scary because the rates have been soaring. [/QUOTE]
