Yes it's called economics. My shitty old town in MA has houses going for over $1M. I would've never though such a thing was possible. But jobs and foriegner moving in attending college have driven that market to outrageousness.
Boston is a pretty cool town too. Everyone is different. Some like country some like big city and some like the burbs. I just like diversity and friendly people. Thats why I like SF and the scenery is amazing along with the weather. But if I had millions its the Hollywood Hill by far! To each his own my brother.
Right on. I've lived everywhere, big city, burbs, country and over seas. No longer a fan of big city living. I enjoy the burbs. Country living just a little slow for my taste but likely have the nicest people IMHO. I'm likely moving overseas next year permanently. I love south east asia, in particular Thailand. I've already spent 2.5 years there over the years. Great country, people and food. Inexpensive and easy to travel around the rest of SEA.Good for you. Hopefully you own property with the dramatic increase.
But come on... you gotta admit hippies are great neighbors.
Read that article too. It's like therapy, lol.
SF has some nice scenery. Weather is much better in SoCal. Other than that it's a typical liberal city with a tiny middle class. Rich people working in Silicon Valley battling for million dollar homes, the worst homeless problem in the country, and a middle class full of people commuting from long distances because they can't afford to actually live there.
LOL, yeah and close all of the many, many other attractions that people can do and will do on gameday.
