$1000 in Cupertino will probably be something like sleeping in the living room in a house or something like that. Maybe your own bedroom in a house if you’re lucky. If you come up here and go to the bulletin board outside of a Ranch 99 or Marina (almost everything written in Chinese), you might be able to do better.
If you want to go to Ohlone, you can probably find cheaper housing in the less affluent parts of Fremont and Newark.
