if being a consultant is what you want to do, Portland. sunnyvale isn't bad, though.

unless you want a big city, that is. (and yes, with s.f.'s big spendy city costs.)

they've been on various top lists for cities of their size in recent years. it's suburban, but it's less than an hour's drive from s.f. on most days, plus nearby san jose has some larger-city offerings.

well, i can be based out of sunnyvale office, so SF is just an option. what's the city like? - colin Jan 13, 14:10 3
- mostly it's a nice, suburban-y mid-size city. costs are higher than some more distant places because of google and other tech companies. - b. Jan 13, 14:20 2
  - oo, the weather sure looks nice. and it would give me access to other tech companies if i wanted to change. it doesn't sound too bad, maybe i should - colin Jan 13, 14:22 1
    - heh, right as we're about to have a week+ of el niño rain. - b. Jan 13, 14:27
