Exclamation Where in Marin???

I am relocating to Marin county for a job in Greenbrae, without much time to look for a place to rent. Any suggestions on where to live/ where not to live? I have heard bad things about Marin City. Is it possible that such a place exists in southern Marin? Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Yeah, you probably don't want to live in Marin City... I know a few people who live there, and even they refer to it as "The Jungle" - not because it has pretty animals, but because it's dark & dangerous. There are many nice towns in Marin County, depending on what your budget is... Sausalito & Tiburon/Belvedere are beautiful but very expensive, and then there's Mill Valley, Novato & San Rafael. The latter three are pretty nice, though I don't know enough about them to give specific recommendations. You could also consider Santa Rosa, Petaluma or Sonoma, which aren't too far away.

My friends actually live in Greenbrae, so there are places to rent around there. They are in walking distance to the Bon Air shopping center, which has shopping, dining, etc. I am a firm believer of living as close to work as possible, especially if there are other amenities close by, so I'd check Greenbrae first.
