Answer 1

You ask same question in SF, and the answer would be same, most area around san jose, mountain view are good, not like SF, there is A LOT chinese there, you will not feel homesick.

Answer 2

Cupertino has lots of Asian people, is a safe city and has the highest rated schools in the area. It's also right next to Sunnyvale. I think you'd like it.

If you get homesick for China, just go to San Francisco. They have the largest Chinatown in the world.

I think the best way you can adapt is to join a church and get active in your new community meeting people. Don't just try to meet other Chinese people though. Make American friends.

Good luck to you and your family!
