You don't have to live in San Francisco to work there. There are plenty of people who live on the other side of the bay and commute by train. This gives you a much more affordable place to live than San Francisco.
- pmiller2 11y agoThat has its own set of trade-offs. Prepare for at least an hour commute each way by BART if you work in SOMA, for instance.
- ryguytilidie 11y agoHuh? I literally live at the end of the line and my commute is 30 minutes...
- kolanos 11y agoI used to commute via BART from Pittsburgh in the East Bay and it was easily an hour on BART alone.
- pmiller2 11y agoYou're not at the end of the line in the East Bay, then. The BART ride alone would be at least 40 minutes, and that's if there wasn't some kind of delay.
- ryguytilidie 11y agoDel Norte (I guess its 2nd to last) to Embarcadero is 31 minutes.
- cbr 11y agoGoogle maps thinks it's 36 minutes from Richmond station to Embarcadero station, and all the other combinations are slower. Where are you travelling between?
- mahyarm 11y agoOr 10-20 minutes if you live in oakland and your company is on market st. It's faster to live in oakland and get to work than live in the western side of sf in that case.
- davidf18 11y agoMany professionals work long hours and thus want short commutes.
- pkaye 11y agoWell there are options and nothing is perfect. If people want to live in an area with high demand and they are not willing to compromise, they should quit their complaining and pay the high rental costs.
