It actually can in the neighborhood we're looking at though admittedly it's about as far from the downtown as you can get and still be in SF.[/quote]

Serious question for op: have you ever lived somewhere that's overcast constantly? The sf neighborhoods that you could conceivably afford are really gray. San Francisco microclimates are an intense thing - some neighborhoods are always sunny (noe, mission, Castro for example) some (eg sunset) very rarely have blue sky. I would think long and hard about this before buying. I would be really depressed in the sunset. I would much sooner move to somewhere bart-covenient in Berkeley or oakland[/quote]

I thought she said not having a long commute was one of the factors. Also then you will deal with having to figure out which neighborhood is going to be a good fit and that will take take time in order to get to know the area. [/quote]
