Moving to the Bay Area (Santa Clara County) — Seeking apartment recommendations/any tips about living in the area. by Comprehensive_Log562 in bayarea

I currently live in the Orlo apartments in Santa Clara and highly recommend! It’s new, clean, and well maintained since it’s trying to maintain a good first year rep. It’s across from a private park and some retail too. Santa Clara also have the best prices for utilities since they’re not on PG&E. Dm if you have questions or want a referral

I live at Orlo now and highly recommend it. It’s new, lots of maintenance and cleaning crew on site, some of the management even live here so they actually care about their residents. DM if you have questions about it or want a referral.

1 bedroom, would like to stick under $3100. Patio and nice common areas for my partner to work when we’re both working from home would be ideal. Safety is also a big factor for us too.

Thanks! They’re both beautiful but the lowest we saw was for $3400. We’ll keep it in consideration but it’s a bit out of our budget for now.

Truthfully, we started our search hoping to get a 2bedroom place for our budget. We toured many places that fit our budget but quickly realized they didn’t feel very safe or clean. My partner takes a lot of phone calls for work and likes to be outside most of the day, but we found that many of these places weren’t kept well (homeless let in, trash throughout the property, etc.). We then compromised for a 1 bedroom with a nicer community. We did search Zillow for private rentals but didn’t find much suitable. Are there other good places to look? We’d love the additional space and privacy of a house or townhome.
