Seriously - the Bay Area is expensive, but you can still rent an entire 3br house in the south bay for $2500 or less (within a few miles of Apple HQ, even). With a couple roommates, that's under $1000/each, and you can cook all you want.

Not everyone lives in SF.

I spend $2.7k a month and I don't even live in SF!
