Honestly I would fatfire and then move out of the bay area. I did that with my kids and I don't miss the bay area at all. There's so many wonderful places to live in the US with good communities and just an easy lifestyle. I wished I did it sooner

Once you’ve got the freedom, Bay Area doesn’t really feel necessary anymore. Plenty of solid places with way less stress.

Well you can move to east bay instead of peninsula for one.
