I'm married with 4 kids. We like living in roughly 3,000 square feet of housing with on roughly a quarter acre of land, so I'm going to guess in absolutely no universe could it ever make sense for us to move to the Bay Area.
- TulliusCicero 10y agoDepends. My old boss (also married with 4 kids) did it. He lives in Pleasanton in order to afford a house and commutes to Mountain View. Has to get up very early to beat the traffic though. The upside is that, while I obviously don't know exactly how much he makes, from what I know about people at his level at Google, he is undoubtedly doing quite nicely.
- ryandrake 10y agoPleasanton is extremely expensive due to its top notch public schools. Your old boss was doing extremely well if he could afford a home there.
- duderific 10y agoYou are correct sir. My 1200 sq. ft. house in the mid-peninsula area, in a very mediocre neighborhood, is currently valued on Zillow at approx. $1.1M. 3000 sq. ft. homes around here barely exist, but you're probably in the $3M range for that kind of place.
