I just moved here in October and I don't really know anyone. The more I'm here the more I wish I lived in SF. The ridiculous thing is that it takes me 25 minutes to get to work from where I live (the Willows in Menlo Park) to SLAC because the intracity traffic is so SLOW.
Basically though, I think the bar scene here blows. It's cool that a lot of the food places are open late on University though.
That being said, while I think long commutes generally suck the life out of people, I'm seriously thinking about moving to Noe Valley or the Mission and commuting on the 280.
Anyways, I'm up for doing stuff if anybody here wants to. I still don't really know anyone in this area.
Well, 25 minutes isn't bad. The thing that sucks is that it's 25 minutes over 5 miles. If I'm going to be in my car for half an hour and living in a place I don't really like, I might as well commute a bit longer and live in a place I like better.
The fact that live music is pretty much non-existant in this area is sort of a bummer as well.
