best place to live when working in Oakland for 50 something woman living alone?
I am a 49 year old woman who has recently gotten a job in Downtown Oakland. I am white. I am looking for an apartment for around 1000.00 a month. Where is a safe, convenient place to live? I am not afraid to ride BART or drive.

i wouldn't live in oakland. anywhere close to bart like concord, berkeley or pleasanton maybe. i don't know about the renting rates there though.
2 :
Rockridge district in Oakland is nice, kind of pricy though. Anywhere in the Oakland Hills is nice too. Also around Piedmont Ave. I would consider Walnut Creek/Concord area. It costs less and there are BART stations near. Maybe check the Orinda area, might be too expensive but its suburbanesqe and close to BART.

Look in San Leandro. It's pretty reasonable in price and close enough to Oakland.

Home and work options in Oakland, CA?
I have a friend who is out of work and close to being homeless in Oakland. He is a military veteran and has had careers in Law Enforcement and other areas and is looking for a temporary place to stay while he gets on his feet. The men's shelters in the area are booked. What other resources are available in the Oakland/SF area to help someone like this with employment and housing?

yes you can!!!!
2 :
Yes, people in the area do it all the time.
3 :
You could, but you will be in some of the WORST traffic in the bay area. The I-80 is jam packed every morning going south and jam packed every afternoon going north. The closer you get to the bay bridge the worse it gets. Depending on your commute time, it can take an hour or more, each way!
4 :
You definitely can, but you'll hate it if you're driving. The traffic back-ups start even before 6 a.m. You can take the ferry though.
5 :
yeah, my uncle lived in Vallejo & worked in Oakland. but now, he's dead. REST IN PEACE.
6 :
Of course. Just have to worry about traffic. Not much options out in that area to get back and forth. 2 freeways to try but they both are a gamble. Unless you work odd hours. But its nice out there and lots of places to shop and eat. Close to the outlet stores and lakes too for camping. Napa is just east of there.
7 :
yes you can
8 :
Yes, take Vellejo transit bus #80 from Vallejo to El Cerrito BART( $4.50) for 30 min ride,the buses go though Car Pool lane, it is not bad. Then BART to Oakland, if you go Civic center or 19th St, the fare is 22 min ride and $2.05

anything is possible

Your question really doesn't have much relevance in travel. You might get more and better answers if you tried the SF local business, or Consumer Electronics> cell phones and plans board.

Should I work Oakland A's training camp in spring or finish up school in the spring or wait till winter?
I can graduate next quarter from college if I take all my classes, or should I wait and take the quarter off to do the A's internship and then continue school in the Spring

If the A's internship is a one-time opportunity, take it. Of course, you also have to consider what you want to do when you do finish college.
2 :
As Fungo pointed out, if A's internship is once in a life opportunity, I would suggest you to take it. If you let me say "You only live once". Strong possibility I would be regretting for the rest of my life if I were you. How many American (and other) boys dream of being a Major League Baseball player and how many actually make it including "a cup of coffee"? But if it is not "take-it-or-never", you have to think all the possible scenario and effects either way. Once graduated, you have graduated and no more paper or anything you have to worry to finish off. OK, graduated and...? Anything waiting you after? Oh, is there any way you can talk to a A's person if they are happy to wait and delay the start of internship until you finish the college? If so, it seems to me that's the best solution to this dilemma. And one big issue - be honest to your true feeling.
