What neighborhoods are within easy walking distance to a Caltrain stop and are good for buying a house or apartment if you work in Menlo Park (2019)? Ideally looking for: * <$1.5 million housing options * Safe and quiet, great for small children * High walkability score, but don’t care about night life * would be a good rental property in the future * total train time <25 minutes thanks!
San Bruno/Mateo
- near a Caltrain stop - quiet
I lived across from a Caltrain station once. Never again.
Just visited my first Caltrain station... they’re a bit noisy. Might need to amend my thought to be near, but not too near a stop.
A bunch of neighborhoods in San Mateo. 3 Caltrain stops here.
San Carlos near Caltrain is nice. Downtown Mtn View is appealing too with Castro St nearby.
+1 for San Mateo
Sunnyvale, Santa Clara is great. Very quiet and walk to Caltrain. Great rental with Apple, Google, LinkedIn closeby.
San Jose. Much more bang for the buck.

Is filling for divorce reasonable given my situation
Most neighborhoods near Caltrain are good , but expensive . Dtsj is probably cheaper than other downtowns in Silicon Valley , but with google coming there you never know when that will inflate
