Oh please 🙄 Spoken like someone who's never even been here. I live 10 minutes from OAK and ride BART all the time. It's absolutely fine.

It's a lot safer than walking around downtown Houston.

Agree. Train from OAK-SFO is fine, takes between 1:10 and 1:30. It can fill up during rush hour though. $15-16 if I remember right.

SJC is also an option, Monterey Airbus has a crew rate of about $15 between SFO and SJC
