    • Doable but will be a bit of a challenge. From personal experience with those numbers & supporting family, it won't feel like middle class living. Maybe don't read this site that much, it'll be depressing.

    You can try Daly City or really anywhere off the Bart line. Is your son school age? If yes you'll want somewhere with a good school district.

      No, he 1.5 – I’m really looking for a temporary solution until I can see if full time remote is an option. I don’t mind commuting, just want somewhere safe.
