Local info
As previously mentioned, this location for Alexander’s Steakhouse is located in Cupertino, California. Cupertino is a portion of the greater San Jose area, located directly south of San Francisco. San Jose is a world famous city, being the cultural, economic and political hub of “Silicon Valley”, arguably America’s most critical region for the thriving tech industry. As such, San Jose itself has become a thriving community, with countless attractions, museums, and sites to see! For example, San Jose is home to the largest building in the Western United States, The Martin Luther King Jr. Library! San Jose is also the location of the SoFA District, a local arts, entertainment and cultural hub, which plays host to numerous art galleries, theaters, and other cultural institutions! These are only the tip of the ice berg when it comes to experiencing San Jose however, and in the "Local attractions" section you can find a list of numerous activities in the area!
Housing: One of the challenges many people face in Cupertino is finding affordable housing. It is an extremely expensive housing market, but that does not mean that finding a place to live is impossible.

Transportation: Getting around San Jose is fairly simply. It is a very walkable city with plentiful sidewalks and trails, but beyond that San Jose has a fairly robust public transportation system. San Jose has numerous bus routes through out the city, as well as a number of light-rail and train options as well. That being said, if you plan to do much travelling outside of the city, you will likely want to get a car. A typical used car will cost around $400 per month, with around $100 in insurance costs as well. Other methods of transportation include Uber and Lyft, though costs could be significant if they are used as an everyday means of transportation. Here's a link to the actual San Jose public transportation website, where you can find some very specific information regarding the best way you can get around San Jose!
