DH has just been offered a really exciting opportunity in Mountain View, and we'll most likely be relocating from Sydney in August. I've never been (though he has) and hardly know where to start researching where to locate ourselves. We have two DC aged 8 and 6, and DC 3 is due any day now.
As far as I can tell, we either compromise on climate or the buzz of living in a city. Good schools are obviously a huge priority. I work from home and like to work in cafes and libraries, so somewhere with a bit of a community feel, with shops and cafes etc, is important to me. We've got used to Sydney rents (just!) and think we can afford either the city, or Palo Alto/Los Gatos/Menlo Park especially as we would hope to avail of free schooling.
So where should we live? In the city, or somewhere in the valley? Any advice at all would be hugely appreciated.
