Does anyone have any advice for a smalltown girl moving in or near San Francisco? |
Travel Info I haven't fully committed to the idea yet, but I'm considering a move to California and San Francisco looks appealing. I'm from a smallish town in Ohio and I'm not quite sure I'm ready to move right into the city. I need some suggestions of some nice, smaller towns near San Francisco that are close enough that I could still come into the city and explore a little. I would really appreciate any suggestions that you have. Thanks! Travel Tips No one seems to be answering your question.... smaller and relatively less expensive places in the east bay that are okay (but no doubt way more expensive than where you live) are: Concord, Pleasant Hill, Walnut Creek, Lafayette, San Leandro, Hayward, Union City, Fremont, Castro Valley, Pleasanton, El Cerrito and Albany. I'm giving you the ones that are along the BART (subway http://www.bart.gov) lines. There are safe spots in Oakland and Berkeley, but you have to be careful because there are also dangerous ones in each city. San Leandro and Hayward do have their wannabe gangstas too, but there are plenty of parts of both cities you could live in without worrying. Craigslist could give you an idea of what apts. would cost in these places: http://www.craigslist.com. Hope this helps. Others dont be freaked out if you see tranies or any homo activities. Don't do it. Have you considered Australia? Then you could come visit me!!! be tolerant. the SF thing is to let people be who or whatever they want to be. it's very groovy. and expect to pay about twice as much rent! well...you may dont know this, but CA is the most expensive state in the US...NY comes in second...so you need to have enough money to able live up to CA's standard of life...even though you live outside of a city...it is still expensive...because CA's population is one-third of US's population...so that's why everythin' are expensive over here...so basically you gotta have enough money to survive...ANY MORE QUESTIONS...I'm more than happy to answer your questions...email me...good luck peacee I live in CA Only one thing: keep your small town heart. Once you move into a big city, some gals tend to go crazy and sleep around, party too much, get addicted to something, or hang out with the wrong kind of friends. Don't let the bad stuff get to ya, instead look for ways in which a new and big city will help improve yourself and make you have a better life, instead of make you into a different person and ruin everything. |
