Daniel, you can do what everyone else is doing in the Bay Area and move to Northern CA. There are so many properties here with shops, larger 3-4 car garages, bigger lots. Prices are also much more affordable on homes and rent. Many employers are allowing employees to work from home. The downside is we get roasted with heat in the summer months and winters are a tad colder with more rain. I moved out of the bay back in 1993 and don't regret it for one moment. Personally every time I return for a visit I always think I am glad I don't live there anymore. Good luck with your new job opportunities and hope you can get it all figured out.
