Housing in this area can be very expensive so we recommend that you find a roommate of someone who already has a house or an apartment to share with you. www.roommate.com OR http://www.easyroommate.com/california/san-jose-area/mountain-view-roommate. The average one bedroom apartment starts around $2000 per month, unfurnished, not including utilities. Keep in mind without any credit it the USA you will need to pay first and last month rent as a deposit. It is advised as a J-1 exchange visitor that you look into options of sharing housing with other locals and/or J-1 exchange visitors. By doing so, you can reduce the costs per month to around $1000; however the costs can also be reduced if you are willing to live outside the city and take public transportation. Below are some resources regarding housing in the area: Park Regent Apartments, Latham Court Apartments, Atrium Court Apartments.

Transportation:
Mountain View is a very walking-friendly community, so getting around by either foot or bike should be easy. That being said, traveling around beyond Mountain View could prove challenging. For instance, San Francisco is a very hilly city, so walking can be a bit challenging if you are not using public transportation. That being said, it is entirely possible to walk around the city and get around completely fine. However, below are some links to San Francisco public transportation websites: SFMTA & San Francisco Transportation
