Piedmont Avenue and Rockridge/College Avenue are as good as any San Francisco neighborhoods, and better than most. Oakland can be a gritty town sometimes, but it's great, and parts of it are as beautiful as San Francisco for sure. A lot of the creative types who no longer can afford San Francisco, live in Oakland now.

I live in Rockridge now. I love it! The weather is fabulous. The shops and restaurants are wonderful. And with a BART station in the middle of it, getting in and out of The City is a snap.
We moved here in 1996 because we could afford a decent house for less than a condo in the City. I'm glad we bought when we did - we could never afford our house now.
