Bay area is a huge place. Where specifically are you thinking about?

I plan to stay in Berkeley, and I hope to visit San Francisco, Palo Alto, and Oakland. Maybe that is too much for one visit? I prefer to live somewhere that is walkable and not over-the-top expensive. My limited knowledge suggests that Berkeley and Oakland are good candidates, given those constraints.

Walkable, and close access to public transit (rails, I assume?).. that would be Mountain View or Palo Alto in the south bay. Berekely or Oakland would be fine if you're looking for affordable city life. It's a little outside of the tech scene however. San Francisco is expensive and pretentious :\
