    same here, around 3k for a 1 bedroom on Cow Hollow, close to the marina
    I guess the pros are that the city is beautiful, full of restaurants, I love living there for my bike rides, just get on the bike and cross the bridge for a ton of great routes.
    One thing about living and working here is that you'll get very well payed, but the cost of living in the city is huge. So i bike everyday to work to compensate a little.

    I'm thinking on moving to San Mateo, I can get a 2-bedroom on a building that has gym, pool, parking spaces for the same price as this very simple 1-bedroom at the marina, the only downside would be a 30min commute everyday to work (I work around Soma)

    So maybe look for apartments in the near cities

    • how far does Bart go down now?moldero
    • I'd just get caltrain, it would be a lot easier for me since it crosses San Mateo and arrives right at the Soma, but yea, there's bart all the way downfeel
