I8AShroom replied: "All depends on how you live your life. If you're a very frugal person then maybe but otherwise, no, it isn't my idea of "comfortable". You certainly won't be able to buy a home or condo with that income. BTW, there really isn't much nightlife in the Marina. SOMA would be a better fit for nightlife."
sftraveler replied: "things may be a little tight. marina/soma are somewhat pricey. you could get an ok studio for maybe $1400+ look on craiglist.org for prices.
if you want a one bedroom i would figure 1800ish in marina, $2200 in soma. these will probably be nice, but not amazing.
if you have a car you will need to factor in a parking space which is a couple hundred a month as well."
Inundated in SF replied: "If that $50,000 is before taxes (gross income), then it'll only be $30,000 after taxes--and it's going to be tight. You can live with roommates which will bring your monthly rent down and you'll probably be able to live in a nicer area even though you'll be sharing. If it's $50,000 net, then you should be able to live fairly comfy (moreso if you have a roommate or two)."
In SF, which is the best district for funky art galleries w/artist events (other than Union Square)? I've been reading about Haye's Valley and SOMA - they sound interesting. We will be spending the night and on foot and are looking for someplace new to explore that might have a good artist community with some fun goings on, good places to eat and drink, day into evening. Thanks!
