Re: Looking to rent in East Bay, CA
Michelle - let us know if you would like to hook up sometime. We have been in the states for 16 years now, the last 10 in Dublin (just down the 680 from Walnut Creek).
We are both in our mid forties and have a 6 year old daughter, who will be 7 next month.
One of our favourite places is La Boulange in Danville (there are several others in San Fran and dotted around the bay area). Lovely pastries and authentic croissants, and yummy cafe au lait. There is also a nice British pub called The Crown in downtown Danville. Their fish and chips aren't half bad.
Have you discovered Fresh & Easy yet? This is Tesco's version of an American mini-supermarket. They sell a few British items, including English style bacon.
Cheers for now, Kevin.

Hi
I've been in Dublin for 5 years now (end of the BART line). We initially lived in
an apartment complex similar to Archstone previously mentioned...infact there was one next door to our complex. The below were a good fit for us.

You might also want to try craigslist.

The rental market is tough at the moment, good stuff is snapped up with all the people getting turfed out of or walking away from their houses. Be prepared for very hefty deposits. I've heard of some places wanting credit reports with scores above 750.
Dublin is a great place if you have kids, bit quiet if you are young and want a decent night life. We (myself, wife and two girls) love it. Excellent schools, safe and clean. Very good transport links BART, and freeway. If you have any queries feel free to contact me on <snip>
Cheers and good luck.
