Title explains it. Trying to narrow down where to live. Moving for Facebook. Kids are elementary age. Budget for housing is $6k/month for 3BR rental as we aren’t looking to buy for another few years. Ideally this can get us into good school districts e.g., Palo Alto? Where would you recommend we live? Are there other strategies to consider e.g. stretch budget a bit to do private school but live in lower cost area? Any specific schools or districts you’d solve for if you were us? Combined TC: $450k
Recently moved to Facebook as well. Welcome :)
Thank you. Excited :)
Welcome :-) sorry can’t help with any of that, but welcome!
Thank you :)
Can't help but congrats on the new gig and welcome to the bay!
Thanks a lot. Excited.
Facebook relocation provides this support. Check with recruiter
Thanks. Wanted to get Blinders’ perspectives.
MTV Sunnyvale might get decent townhomes. Palo Alto not so sure
Palo Alto/Los Altos/Cupertino has good public schools if that's important to you. FYI for people from outside of CA: California public school system is the worst or second worst in all 50 states. Lowe your expectations or choose private schools.
why? I heard cupertino schools are very good
Cupertino is the "worst" good school district. It's per pupil funding is the lowest in the bay area because it's a rich city without much government funding, while local resident are unwilling to pay extra tax to fund public schools.
Foster City. Thank me later.
Checking it out. Thanks.
6k per month will get you an apartment that’s well below that rate but 3 br is going to be difficult. Single family homes will come in at the top of that range in Menlo Park and Palo Alto.
I’m surprised no one is suggesting Ardenwood
Good for schools or just generally affordable?
