San Francisco?

[albionchic]

So I just had a phone interview with a company in the San Francisco area yesterday, and I have a follow-up interview with them on Friday. Does anyone have any opinions on that area? Is it a nice place to live? Easy to make friends? Really expensive?

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!!!

san francisco is great - totally awesome mix of people. a truly diverse city. tons of natural beauty all around you, and the city has so many awesome neighborhoods with unique cultures and foods and stuff. example, in the spanish mission part of the city, i had the best night out ever at Baobab Cafe, a tiny senegalese bar. it is hella expensive rent wise, but salaries there are usually a bit larger to cover. analisa and natalie live there. there are tons of awesome apartments, but hunting for one is quite a chore.

if you get offered this job, you should TOTALLY take it. i'm jealous!

OMG! I love that city! I just went out there summer to visit a friend and it was great! I almost like it better than NYC because you have everything all in one...the ocean, the forest, and the city life. As far as making friends, that's hard to do in any big city, but like anything else it will take time. Good place to live though!

I have to agree with your other friend, RENT is super expensive just like NYC! At least 1,000 a month, and that is at the cheapo places. So you're more than likely going to have to find a roomate. My friend found her roomates on that craig website everyone is talking about.

Thanks for the input! I have another interview for the job on Friday, so we will see how it goes! As far as I can tell, it sounds like a great city to live in. Now I just have to see about the job!! :)
