Rebecca D said:Like many San Franciscans I'm lost and confused as soon as I pass the city limits, but I do go through San Rafael nearly every weekend. I know absolutely nothing about that area except that I do anti-death penalty work and that's where San Quentin is. I take the long, boring 2-hour bus ride out there and have never seen anything interesting along the way.
From my very limited experience with the area it seems like a boring place to be and I can understand why you want to leave. And it seems like you're pretty much set on going to SoCal, so I wish you good luck and happiness down there!
San Rafael is a great city, full of diversity and stuff to do, Marin on the whole is a great place, very beautiful, but the house prices are insanely high. I recently saw a one bedroom, one bathroom fixer upper in a real estate magazine, they said " A bargain a only $999,000!", the rent in SF is insanely high as well. Marin is best left for people who are married with kids who don't want to go out on the weekends or at night. The nightlife is pretty abismal and some of the people are kind of stuck up and snobby.
