Wasn’t really looking for a COL decrease, but the apartment I have here, a similar one with the same amenities would easily cost $1500+ more per month and be smaller. 1bd Apartments in new buildings in Oakland are 500-650 sq ft and start at $3000/month. I have a 2bd spot, PH floor and pay less than I would for a one bd thereprobably not a big drop of in cost of living ..?
This is the only other area of the country I loveAh. I never could get with staying in DC long term.
