View neighborhoods would be great. We've already decided to go the private school route so at least for now we're not bound by school district requirements. As such, we're not even looking at PA, Los Altos, Menlo, and some of the other truly stratospherically expensive areas but hoping that in the "slums" of Mt. View you can still find a hovel for less than $1MM (ideally, at least 1500 sq. feet in order to squeeze in the 5 of us).
Thanks in advance.

the wall street journal and economist have both recently said that you'd have to be an asshat to but in the SF area these days because of the relative values of renting v. buying. See March 23 WSJ and March 5 economist
