Id definitely focus on San Francisco & Peninsula(area between SF & Palo Alto). Most of the jobs will be in these two areas(sorry east bay,but emphasis is on most). While living in San francisco is convenient, the areas with nice climate are generally more expensive(SOMA, Portrero Hill). But youre in the middle of startup hustle and bustle... If you get a place in the Peninsula near a Caltrain or a Bart Station, you can get to South of Market/Downtown in no more than 25 minutes(Baby bullet express from San Mateo to SF).
