Yeah, ask whatever away..been here for all but 5 years of my life, having lived pretty much everywhere but Oakland/Richmond or outlaying areas. Just ask before Monday the 28th's here or wait for my reply until 2 weeks from then.
Basically, IMHO, whatever you are expecting wage wise, follow the Rent/Food multiplied by 35 or 40 for a decent livable wage, poor economy not withstanding, rents here and gas have not fallen in cost in the least and now things like Proctor and Gamble make are expected to start soaring along with any truck freight, despite us being a Port of Call.
Here's the BLS page to reference wage scales: http://www.bls.gov/
I live in the Sacramento area and like it a lot.
I'm inteviewing in Livermore, you can probably put 2 and 2 together on what the employer might be.
I am worried about cost of living, I'm basically thinking they're need to offer me about 40-50% over what I'm making now to make it worth my while (and make up for the cost of living increase). It's a little hard to guess at what a salary they might offer me would be, we'll see what happens.

2+2=4 but only if you're at the Labs, but they're experimenting daily on stuff to manipulate that outcome..
Old friend that works there has their place in Dublin, but it's an overpriced apartment just down the street from the penitentiary so it isn't as high as the other spots. You could conceivably risk driving in like everyone else does from Molesto, Turdlock, or Stockholm, or IMHO consider Fremont since Niles Canyon and highway 84 are right there.
When will you be in town, I'll buy ya a beer, or coffee. As far as gun and weapons laws, well, you know what they say about this state. Since I can pretty much nail which employer it is I can also recommend some people to chat up as far as housing possibilities like shared rentals or whatever if you land the spot and need something until you find a place.
