After tax will be about $54,000.

Rent will set you back about $39,000.

That leaves $19,000 ($1,583/month).

Here's the truth coming from someone living in SF on less than six figures:

You'll have to share a place if you want to live in the city. You can maybe get a shit studio with no oven or stove for $1600. If you don't mind roommates you're looking at $1400-1800 depending on neighborhood and bathrooms. Food and going out add up like any city but if you cook you can keep those expenses down.

The other option is to live in Oakland where there's a non-trivial chance you will be a victim of a crime whether it be violent or not is really the question. Even in Oakland, you'll only be paying a 20% discount depending on public transit access and neighborhood. You'll have to be cool with being surrounded by scary looking Black people. Some just look scary because you're racist, many others are legit dangerous.

If the job is a stepping stone or there's upward mobility take it, live with roommates, whatever.

Good title? Chances it leads to something if start up fails? I forgot, you can get a 250 sqft studio in tenderloin for $1750/mo but you'll have heroin addicts on your front door screaming in the middle of the night, shit, needles, drug dealers, etc as your neighbors. If you got thick skin, go for it.

I see, tbh the opportunity may be with it if you can jump after a year. It’s pretty hard to break in without a degree or any experience now. Hopefully they’ll offer chances for training and mentorship. I’d hold out for a smaller/cheaper market personally

I can confirm that you need to think seriously if the Oakland discount is worth it. Drove there the other week for dinner and legit walking dead types just shuffling across 4 lanes of traffic not giving a fuck about cars going either way. And I'm someone already fairly numb from the shit I've seen in SF...Oakland is it's own kind of disaster zone.
