A few things we've learned so far in regards to Big City Life:
(1) There is no "I'll just zip over to ..." Nope, it takes forever to get anywhere, in a car at least. The traffic is pretty bad, lots of stop-and-go. But the trains seem to run on time. Haven't ridden a bus yet, so I can't comment on them.
(2) Rent is astronomically high. In Northern Nevada, we could afford to rent a nice 3 bdr/2 bath townhouse, about a 15-minute drive from Lennon's work. In Seattle, we can barely afford a small 2 bdr/1 bath apt. in Edmonds, which is a 30-minute train ride PLUS a 15-minute bus ride to Lennon's work. Wow.
Definitely things that are different. You will make it all work- I know you will!
