I would sure love to know what "very little" is to you. I have a hard time believing your rent is less than $1500, and I certainly wouldn't consider that "very little". Given how relative one's perception of costs can be, would you mind being a little more explicit about your rent?

It's a little over half of that. And it was one of several places like that I found so I know it wasn't just "luck". It was not as simple as just "get on Craigslist and find something", though. I had to watch it carefully.

EDIT: Just checked Craigslist and I can STILL find stuff for under $1000/mo in numerous places in SF. The trick seems to be looking under "rooms / shared" and also not expecting to find a place in Pac Heights ;-)
