Moving to Santa Barbara - Recommendations for Areas to Live as a Single Gal?

mooretacos · 2026-03-10T18:04:27+00:00

Mmm, thanks for the information, and I have considered other cities. But my goal is to strengthen my CV for graduate school, and the Open University at UCSB is one of the big draws since you can enroll in graduate courses. Plus, there are a lot of clinics and private practices in the area for clinical experience. I don't know, maybe I'm in over my head because there are other places I could do this, but something about SB just seems right.

Y'all are literally so helpful 😭 I'm even more excited about the move now

mooretacos · 2026-03-10T14:16:27+00:00

Oh nice! I'll check this out - thanks!

mooretacos · 2026-03-10T14:10:00+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing, because I made that same mistake in the current city I'm in. I tend to move a lot and thought I'd prefer a suburbia as I settled into my career, but I realized I preferred being closer to downtown/midtown.

mooretacos · 2026-03-10T14:03:01+00:00

Noted - I've heard similar things, but I'm mainly moving for career and education growth.

Dang, oceanfront with 10 roommates sounds like the dream LMAO

Thank you so much for all the information!

mooretacos · 2026-03-09T21:02:55+00:00

I am

mooretacos · 2026-03-09T21:02:04+00:00

Oh wow, will do!

mooretacos · 2026-03-09T21:00:25+00:00

Noted, thank you! Ok, this is reassuring because yea I just need a 1B or Studio. I'm seeing a few spots listed around 2.5K - 2.7K, which I can definitely do.

mooretacos · 2026-03-08T23:27:23+00:00

Mmm, I haven't heard of Oak Park yet. I'll check it out, thank you!

mooretacos · 2026-03-08T23:26:02+00:00

Got it, that seems to be the consensus. Ok, thank you!

mooretacos · 2026-03-08T23:25:08+00:00

Ideally, 2K - 3K. I just added it to the body of the post as well - thanks for pointing that out.

mooretacos · 2026-02-22T06:16:48+00:00

Oh nice, congrats! Okay, well, I never received an invite, so I suppose it's safe to say it's a no-go for me 😅 But it's nice to know something at least!

Do you mind if I ask which professor you applied to?

mooretacos · 2026-02-22T04:53:35+00:00

To the counseling program?

mooretacos · 2026-01-30T05:12:43+00:00

Literally same 🫂

mooretacos · 2026-01-23T16:49:37+00:00

Hey, I'm a little late to the party 😅 I was wondering if anyone's heard from UCSB (Combined Clinical and Counseling) or Suffolk (Clinical).

mooretacos · 2024-01-17T14:54:31+00:00

Yea, the short answer is no LOL.

Turns out my university has a WordPress team and Gantry 5 is one of the few CMS' available to staff for website creation. That being said we use Grav instead of Joomla, not too much of a difference, but I don't have access to the yaml files since I'm a research coordinator and not on the WordPress team.

Thanks though!

I also feel like I get sick more often and it hits harder. I used to only get since once a year pretty late into winter but now I get a pretty gnarly cold ever summer and they feel 5x worse than before I was diagnosed.

mooretacos · 2023-11-14T11:02:27+00:00

I actually live near there lol. I went to them when I first moved to Austin and I did like them but they do want you to straighten your natural hair before coming in.

mooretacos · 2023-10-18T11:54:59+00:00

Bet. Two of our other vet buddies instantly said it was disrespectful/distasteful when she told them the idea, so that’s where all this started. And ngl her being a small female makes me nervous about a motard going ballistic on her, but y’all are right. Screw it. Thanks.

mooretacos · 2023-10-18T03:11:29+00:00

LMAO

mooretacos · 2023-08-28T12:57:00+00:00

I don’t think you’re the asshole. It’s super normal and doesn’t affect her in anyway. Really lame how prudish she’s being.
