where would you live if you worked in Orinda (and aren't a millionaire?)

I'm considering a job- but don't want to spend an insane amount on rent. Safety is a top factor, currently am in Pacifica with no issues

Some parts of Oakland...or Pleasant Hill/nicer parts of Concord or even Walnut Creek...Maybe Lafayette.. (depends of course on what you can spend on rent).

Pleasant Hill if it is in the budget... also has a good shopping district and minutes from Walnut Creek.

I have friends in Martinez and love it... price was less for a newer neighborhood than other area.

Others I know live in Moraga/Rheem... all depends on budget.

All the above, plus El Sobrante and Pinole. They are a short commute over San Pablo Dam Road, although it's an undivided road if that bothers you.
