PayCounter is in Santa Clara, CA. On the north webstern border of San Jose. Come by when you get into town. We'll buy you a beer.
San Jose is pretty boring.. they are finally getting some decent restaurants & a few good bars. Most people head up to San Francisco if they want to go out and party.
There are some beautiful places to live in the south bay area. Los Gatos, Saratoga, Cupertino, Los Altos Hills... The only problem is the price of the pads. A nice house in one of those towns is gonna run 1.2 Million for a started house. ;)
It is expensive, but it's a great place to live.. Virtually no crime, great Data Centers!, Awesome weather, beautiful hills... it's nice just really expensive.
