A room in a Union City house couldn't compare with a room in SF. In Nov. 98 I stayed at a studio @ Westlake (Daly City, 10min from SF office via 280!) and the rent was $895/month. I checked during the 2008 recession and that hadn't actually increased much (and the apartments were still as dumpy)

I recall not having to pay toll during carpool hours, which was very sweet. But maybe that has changed.
