so moving to the Bay Area in about a month.
Now I really hate you.
I'm uber jelly.
So how much is your apartment going for? Hopefully I'll require living in NYC or the Bay Area again in 2-3 years.
I'd already have seed and second round funding years ago if I were in San Jose running in the circles I was making headway into when I was out there in 2010.
If you'd like a little personal insight on the South Bay area give me a holler. You're going to absolutely love it there. Make sure you spend some time in Half Moon Bay in the winter sitting on the edge of the ocean and feeling the energy of the massive ocean swells and the 40-60 foot waves.
Go to as many games as you can in AT&T park. Stock up on Razorback hoodies.
Big Basin is tremendous, I've never done shrooms or anything remotely similar but I'd be willing to camp out in the Redwoods and gypsy dance with Sasquatch.
Sonoma is over-rated but the resorts there are not, your lady will enjoy the pampering and vino.
You're trading subways for traffic and trains. The BART will seem like the old west to you, and the lines further out will seem like the stoneage.
There's a bajillion superfund sites out there, tap water and any ground water is suspect.
Santa Cruz will remind you of a juiced up Fayetteville on the Ocean. I didn't appreciate it as much as I should of. My gf I had out there was a super prissy preppy asian, which I like of course, but she was more frightful of the wierdos and that made nights out in downtown and clubs a little tense. The people are amazingly chill there.
Don't frick with any vatos. The Norteno/Surueno/MS-13 stuff is the only real gang issues. Hispanic nightclubs aren't going to, and you'll be tempted to find some legit salsa spots just don't stay too late.
Watsonville... just don't.
Same for Gilroy. The outlet mall will be tempting though.
L&L Hawaiian BBQ, don't miss it.
You're also trading high rent for stupid high rents.
You'll be so much more active on the West Coast. NYC seems like it'd make a person to live in a micro environment because there's so many options so close, there's a lot more room to roam and stretch your legs in Cali.
Vegas flights are scary cheap.
Half Dome is too close to spend some time out there.
Modesto is a shithole.
If you want sort of reasonable and affordable housing and not live in a Sikh or Chinese neighborhood. I liked Willow Glen, Los Gatos, the Almaden area, Campbell, and Mountain View/Los Altos Area.
We'll need to work out some type of overnight Fed Ex thing so you can send me Pizza My Heart pizzas.
You'll love the Waze app, dodging traffic will become a fine art in your life.
If you choose to live further up the penninsula, you'll wish you chose further down after a while. SF is close enough to drive for day trips and evenings out.
Enjoy the hell out of it, it's a fabulous place to live. again, very jelly.

My take on all of the back and forth is this.
At least we have something to argue about!
Over the last 2+ years we could all simply agree that we sucked.
Now some off us choose to accentuate the positive while others choose to point out that we are not at the level we need to be.
Both are valid points.
At the end of the day we're all Arkansas Razorback fans, and agree with each other or not, we all have this in common.
Go Hogs Go. Beat the Hell Out of Bama.

Damn, dude. Thanks for the breakdown, Rick Steves.
We're going to be living in the East Bay suburbs...that's how we can afford a decent place. Even marginally close to the city was ridiculous!
