Moving to CA

I fly out of Palo Alto (KPAO). I got my private ticket
and instrument rating with Sundance Flying Club, and I
continue to rent with them. It's a pretty laid-back
club, very informal, and the aircraft rent for a bit
less than other clubs on the field. The drawback is
that their fleet is pretty small right now. A Warrior,
an Archer, a Cherokee 180 that is not an Archer, a
(couple of?) 152's, a couple 172's, a Duchess, a 182RG.
Also, as part of the laid-back atmosphere, you get
aircraft that aren't as up-to-date as you might like.
(ie, bring your own GPS)

There are several other clubs on the field: Palo Alto
Flying Club, Stanford Flying Club, and West Valley
Flying Club. WVFC has a huge fleet, with all sorts of
different planes, many of which are newish.

Reid Hillview, I think, is overall a lot cheaper, but
I cannot stand driving to that place. I live in Campbell
which should be closer to RHV and it is to
PAO, but for some reason I can get to PAO faster in my
car, and the drive is less irritating.

Check out Nice Air at Reid-Hillview RHV. Got my basic ticket there and am
currently finishing up my instrument ticket there, with plans to go on to
the Commercial and CFI.

I rent from them too, for my 'fun' flying.

I'm relocating to CA from MA in next few weeks and leaving my old flying
club here at LWM.
Wondering if I can get some good recommendation for flying clubs in the
bay area?
I'll be in Milpitas/San Jose area...
Thanks
