From my experience, cost of living is similar, but housing prices are much lower in NJ for comparable houses in desirable areas in SF Bay Area, especially on the high end. Apartments in NYC are on par with apartments in SF

I have a sister who lives in the Bay area, she used to live in Cupertino, I believe it's a lot more expensive for housing there. Lots of people share housing, if you're not a tech worker you're just priced right out of the market.
We are both high tech workers and were completely priced out of the area so we decided to move back to NJ where jobs are good and housing (outside of Northern NJ) seemed cheaper. Also, I appreciate the green and seasons.
