re: #94 whitebeach

Ah, god, just your proximity to the lovely place is giving me a nostalgia attack. I remember watching the fog pour in under the Golden Gate from a corner of the curved bay window of my Hyde Street apartment, in a building that had survived the 1906 quake and fire, and which cost me $90 a month, which struck me as exorbitant. I doubt if I could get it for $3000/month today.

Probably more like $6 or $7k these days.

SF rents are just crazy. Absolutely crazy.

Not that the rest of the Bay Area is that much better, but in comparison, yes. (I paid $1400 a month on campus for a one bedroom apartment in 2007. That was quite good in comparison to the going rate in the surrounding area, which has only gotten worse.)
