Move to the city first, if it's too much for you move to the outskirts later, otherwise your gonna miss out on the experience.
In SF expect to pay from 1200-1500 for a small /decent size 1 bedroom. Of course there is always that one guy who has some wacked out deal. Anything above 1500 will surely be good.
Keep in mind they pay more. It's not at all unheard of to ask for 3000 a week freelance. At worst they will knock you back to 2000.
Parking can be fucked. Unless you enjoy moving your car on street cleaning days and circling the block for 15 minutes. You'll find that you don't need it after a while except for grocery shopping and exploring the outskirts. Some places have parking spots for an extra 100-200.
Interactive work is a dime a dozen. It's back with a vengeance. Print work is here but not a prevalent unless you take a full time gig. Many reputable shops too.
Super city. It will take at least 3 years to soak it all up. Beautiful weather, culture, nature and food.
Start packing!
