[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is anyone from Silicon Valley or does anyone live there now? Where would you live in Silicon Valley if you had a budget of around $800,000 for a house and needed a good public elementary school? House size is less important than charm, character, and location. We are also willing to rent if necessary. Any advice or information is welcome. [/quote]

Used to live very near mountain view but its been about 10 yrs.  you can find something....rent only if you know its temporary because prices are not coming down.  Be ready to seriously downsize your life though, and be open to town homes as well.  we had to sell 75% of our stuff when we moved there just so we could fit into a house.  you'd be surprised how refreshing living in a smaller space can be.   schools for the homes listed below are all decent

These don't seem like to bad options, especially the last one with Los Gatos High School.

But how do the schools relate to schools here? Like a GS 5 at Fremont High, does that mean it is similar quality to a GS 5 W-L in Arlington?  I know GS scales are really calibrated off of state test scores, but wondering how to compare state to state (CA vs DMV?)[/quote]
