I will be starting my first job soon. Is 3K - 3.3K too much for a 1br/1ba in Sunnyvale/MTV? Also international so I don’t know if I’ll be settling here in the long term/get kicked out of the country by Trump.

Base is around 155K with 300K TC. My net worth is close to 0. 0 yoe. I had been a poor PhD student in the last 6 years. Age: late 20s/early 30s.

Is it also a good idea to spend this much on rent?

EDIT: I found a luxury apt: ~3K p/m with 2m
free rent. Make sure you negotiate!
