If you've been working patrol for more than 2 years, you are considered a lateral transfer. You would still have to go through the background process and that takes time, anywhere from a couple of months to a year or more. If/When you do pass the background investigation, you would be placed in a lateral academy (its shorter than the one for entry level). Recruits live anywhere they can. Its very expensive to live in the Bay Area, especially in SF. and most likely you will be commuting.
