Depends on how much your cost of living is currently but in my own experience, its probably more expensive overall to be in the Bay. Not only has cost of living hiked in recent years, but also to consider one of the highest sales tax, etc... And everything is in general more expensive for the equivalent elsewhere.
I still think its a great place to be but you really have to decide if you love being here or not. Its definitely a unique culture.
- moco85 14y agoAny advice for getting a taste of that culture before moving there?
- OafTobark 14y agoUnfortunately outside of a long vacation visit, its really hard to get a first hand feel for this. Before I moved to the SF several years back, I came to visit and living here vs visiting (for a week) was a day and night contrast. You might feel some of it but you won't really be immerse in it unless you spend some time here. Everything is vastly different. Mindset, behaviors, the people, the way things work, etc.. Its incredibly hard to explain to others outside of the cliche everyone states. Its one of those things that is best felt personally to see if the way things here best fits YOU.
