Question for San Fran BOTLs

You'll either be living in Half Moon Bay or Pacifica. Although SF is close, its actually a world away. HMB is a rural community and rent should be much less than in the City. Be prepared for cold weather, the coast is fogged-in most of the time and rarely gets above 75 even in the summer. Lots of nice restaurants, good ocean fishing. HMB is very nice place to live.

Thanks so much for the input guys.

I spent a good bit of time looking at rentals and would need a 3br and the prices are quite a bit higher than they are in Florida.

It's really going to come down to what kind of compensation is involved for such a big move.

Also, be sure to factor in a 15-20% increase in basic cost of living. Other than Hawaii, we have the highest gas prices in the country.
