Lot of unknown here. Do you need to be able to commute into downtown often/easily? Would you rather live in the outer parts of SF (like Richmond or Sunset) or in a different part of the Bay Area? Do you care most about space, diversity, education, etc.?

If you have to commute to San Francisco and want good school district, you may wanna consider:

1. Berkeley
2. Burlingame
3. San Mateo
4. San Carlos
5. Belmont

Thank you D1! Your questions are pushing me to think along the right direction! Both of us will be working at SF. We don't mind commuting since it'll be mostly remote. We would prefer diversified area with good public schools. Thanks!

Cupertino is not a suburb right? Cupertino is expensive

I like tri cities. I feel it’s a convenient place to travel within Bay Area and affordable to raise a family.

Pleasant Valley

What you all think abt pleasant valley??

She doesn’t have a full time offer yet after aggressively applying for multiple jobs a week. She’s working right now at an extended lobbying internship with GA Chamber of Commerce.
