@EY1 what kind of app is this then? I was under the impression it was a forum to share ideas and trade insights anonymously between people in a similar career. Seems like "where do I live?" falls into that category.
Also, " why don't you google it" is the 2016 equivalent of "go fuck yourself for having the nerve to engage me by asking a question someone else has asked before."
If you don't want to participate then kindly "go google" yourself.
Hahahahahaha hahahahahaha no.
This is not craigslist or any kind of apartment renting app. Also, since you're moving to SF I would look up something called 'Google'.
I hope we have more ppl like S&1 and less like EY1 on this app
Depends on your definition of decent and also your definition of the Bay Area. You can maybe find something decent for this price in like, Walnut Creek. Or way south, closer to San Jose. But decent studio for under 2k in SF is less likely. You might be able to find an indecent one though, lol.
Best joke I've heard today
I've seen a few geniuses living in a car. No joke - get an RV or utility van and outfit it or rent one of those sleeping cars.

Berkeley/Oakland are probably your best bets
Hilarious.
some of my friends live in San Mateo..and I think they pay less than $2000!
Ya bruh that doesn't exist. I'm moving there in a week and still can't find anything that cheap. I'll be camping under the golden gate. Come chill
Just moved to Burlingame (above San Mateo). It's damn near impossible to find something that cheap if you want to have your own room. Maybe sublease under someone or room with someone.
I would second the Walnut Creek recommendation. You should be able to find something under $2,000 within walking distance to BART. From there it's ~40 minutes into the financial district and round trip costs ~$11(+3 parking). It has a decent downtown and night life, but it's also easy to get into SF for that scene. The living spaces near BART also have a fairly young crowd from what I've heard (few friends living in the buildings). Berkeley is also popular, and cheaper, but a less nice area. I'm less familiar with it, so hopefully others can comment.
Berkeley isn't as nice as Walnut Creek, but definitely a younger crowd and much more walkable/better public transit. Source: I went to Cal
Agree re Walnut Creek/Concord and they have great running paths all over. Could also be in South SF or possibly Burlingame.
Oakland and east Palo Alto.. Not necessarily the safest though
Oaklands improved tho. Not E. Palo Alto tho.
