If you are open to living in an urban but very "neighborhood-ey" environment then Chicago is without a doubt one of the best. Most of the neighborhoods worth looking at are an easy bus ride to the blue line or along the blue line itself. Oddly, the suburbs around O'hare are not as easily connected to the airport. Go figure.
If you are looking at the total package and not just the ride to the airport, Chicago is, without a doubt, one of the easiest cities to get around via public transit. Cheap, reliable (yes, even in the snow), efficient and reasonably clean.

BART Weekday Airport Service Hours
4:00 a.m. to 11:45 p.m.
BART Weekend Airport Service Hours
Sat: 6:00 a.m. to 11:45 p.m.
Sun: 8:00 a.m. to 11:45 p.m.
So if your flight gets delayed, you're spending at least $40 for an Uber. Which shouldn't be that big of a problem if your rent is already $3000/mo for a 1br

Fly6584 - OAK to SFO before midnight should be easy, just allow a solid hour to get there.

DFW and DAL aren't too bad. DART parking is free and it only costs $2.50 each way to ride the train in. You'll land at the A concourse at DFW and have to catch a connecting van to DAL or grab an Uber for a couple of bucks.

I wouldn't recommend parking overnight in any of the DART parking lots. DART doesn't allow parking overnight at any of their park and ride lots except for the Parker Road Station.
