i did it, fell in love with the place after visiting from the bay area in october 2 yrs in a row. it ended up being a LOT more expensive than i realized, especially since i had a car but i was in SLU, if you move somewhere like fremont or queen anne it’s a lot more doable even if you have to commute. tacoma is more affordable and you can take the train, most of my coworkers did that. overall, if it’s actually in your budget i say give it a go
