hey,
i just searched thro the google search engine for housing in SF....
found the foll site good....
check out at...www.thevillasparkmerced.com.
acc to mapquest it is located around 3.5 miles from UCSF....
this is just a search made by me....
i donot have any idea about how good or bad the apt complex or the neighbourhood is....
there r other apts too that u can search on metro rent.com....but they donot even have a dishwasher and r only slightly cheaper or about the same rate....
it would be best if anybody in UCSF can comment on housing or give us any insights on the searches that I have made so far....
thanks...

If you get UCSF housing go for it!!. Their housing facilities (at least I've been to) are located in a beuatiful area, in the city, really quiet place, very appropiate for studying. All surrounded by trees and forest. And is cheaper than anything else.

SF is ridisculously expensive, and if you have an 8 y/o son you'll probably want a 2 bedroom apt. those can go pretty high here in the city.

Other option will be to move out of the city and communte everyday (Bart, driving, etc) schools outside the city are better anyway for your son.

craiglist is a good place to start. and the same people at ucsf housing could tell you too.

good luck :luck:
