Been scouring through craigslist and padmapper the past couple weeks. Most listings are crap, and the ones that are decent rarely reply back.<p>I did a search of HN and found previous requests for roommate help have gone unnoticed, so I'm not very optimistic about this one either.<p>Little bit about me: 23 years old, have a steady job, clean, have a good sense of humor (I was going to say funny, but then I realized no one laughs at my jokes), likes all things web.<p>Would love to live with fellow hackers or at least someone involved in SF/bay area startup scene, but at this point I'd just choose a quiet place to live with chill roommates.<p>My email is 20000.legs@gmail.com, if you're interested or know someone I'd be very grateful.
Everything good on Craigslist is going to have a ton of competition, there's no way around it. Just keep your mind open to opportunities - I got my current place when my first choice fell through, but I asked the landlord if he had anything else nearby. Turns out one of his tenants in the same building wanted to move out early.<p>You might also consider living in Berkeley/Oakland - it's easy to get to SF via BART, and cheaper to boot.
I don't look for roommates, just get my own place so the options are not quite as you described. Maybe you can post a ad to look for a roommate and find a place together that way? Not sure if that would work.<p>BTW, I responded to an earlier reply from another thread
