When you think of San Francisco, your first thoughts may be of cable cars and rows of houses on inclined streets. However, with one of the highest costs of living in the country, San Francisco housing prices can be as steep as its slanted streets. The average small apartment goes for more than $3,000 a month and median home prices top $1.5 million.
But if you're okay with a commute, San Francisco has many suburbs with connected mass transit options that get homeowners close to the big city action with relative ease. These Bay Area suburbs match San Francisco's vibe with their own offerings of historic homes, farmer's markets, nightlife, and dining choices. Some are offer affordable family homes (some in the $500,000 range, this is San Francisco after all), while others offer campus-size space (if you're willing to fork up to $5 million). But no matter what you're looking for, you'll have to act swiftly: Even in the 'burbs, the real estate market moves quickly. Interested? Take a look at these six suburbs—each one will get you to downtown San Francisco in an hour or less. And just a reminder: They're not necessarily cheaper than San Fran, but they'll offer you something you can't find in the densely populated city.
