We're moving to the Bay area in a year and will be starting a family shortly thereafter. So while I know that no one place is likely to have all of these characteristics, I would like to move to an area that has as many of these characteristics as possible:
1. Rental housing with at least 3 bedrooms and rents no higher than, let's say, $3500 per month. (We'll never in our lifetime be able to buy a house out there).
2. A safe neighborhood with safe parks nearby for kids to play in.
2. Good public schools with active parents.
3. I want an area that is neither too wealthy and stuck up, nor too low-class. We both have college degrees and value education very highly, and want to be around like-minded people. At the same time, we both prefer to stay away from the country club, keeping-up-with-the-Joneses mentality.
It doesn't matter what part of the Bay area it is - we just want to know as much as possible about as many different areas as possible. Thanks!
