Where to get Private Pilot in the bay area

Hey Guys! Im thinking of doing my PPL in the bay area. I am thinking of taking a leave and dedicating 3 months only to do this. I am also planning to do the Gold Seal ground school concurrently and train on simulators. I definitely want to keep my costs as low as possible and fly as much as possible every week.(5 times a week maybe). Thinking of starting in December and wrapping up by March. I live in the city. What schools have the cheapest planes and instructors? Thinking of budgeting $15k and aiming to wrap up in 60 hours. Is that realisitic?

Any advice and thoughts would be appreciated.
