montclair/piedmont is definitely a nice area far off from the lesser parts of oakland. close to berkeley, you'll also be on the 13 which is a good way to get to hayward avoiding all the traffic on 880. http://www.city-data.com/zipmaps/Oak...alifornia.html basically 94611 east of grand ave.

What are you looking for?
What is your budget?
How far will you be willing to drive?

How much do you pay?

Crazyness! We pay 1500 for a huge 2 bedroom house with a garage and yard (Btw i live minutes from Avalon..how come I never see the s2k?) But I dont think I can do 1500 for a 1 bedroom although thats what I'd want. The fiance is still in Davis doing work so she only lives with me a few days of the week. Then I'm up there. Avalon is nice however.
