Looking for an affordable, walkable, transit-friendly city on the west coast

Hi! I’m from the Central Valley of California where the summers are hot and the rain is rare. I’ve lived here my whole life and I think it’s time for a change. I plan to move in two years time.

I want somewhere walkable and transit-friendly where the summers aren’t so horrible. I think snow would be cool, simply because it hasn’t snowed here since I was a baby.

I’m currently thinking Portland Oregon, Seattle Washington, and San Rafael California. But they are definitely more expensive, so I’m open to other options.

Thanks!

Chose an apple instead of chocolate mousse

I’m currently trying to lose weight, and I tend to be very sensory seeking with my food. I love salty and sweet things. Apples are great but I love chocolate more.

But today, as I was looking for snacks to bring to work, I opened the fridge and looked at the chocolate mousse I bought from Costco.

And then I closed the fridge and grabbed an apple! A lot less caloric.
