Hi,

I'll be moving to the Bay Area from center city Philadelphia and working in Palo Alto. I have school-aged kids who will go to public school. We're also vegans, so the city would be great, but our budget is under $3300. We don't think we can get the space we feel like we need (1500 sf or so) in the city for that price, close to BART or Caltrain. Berkeley is just too far.

So far Mountain View is looking like the best option, maybe Millbrae.

Any suggestions?

For excellent schools all the way through (elementary thru high school) Millbrae is an excellent choice. And it's close to BART/CalTrain (and you can park for free). Burlingame is very good, too.

Palo Alto and Mountain View are good choices. Palo Alto is more expensive than Mountain View but the schools are very good. South Palo Alto (south of Page Mill Rd) might be a little less expensive than north Palo Alto and downtown PA.

As for vegan cuisine, Palo Alto, California Vegetarian Restaurants Vegan
