Half of Bay Area residents want to leave

[DigitalDrifter]

No surprise. Liberal hot spots are always way too expensive to live in.


Nearly Half of Bay Area Residents Want Out: Poll

The Bay Area's soaring cost of living has more residents considering a move out of the area, according to a new poll conducted by the Bay Area Council.

The central question in the poll asked people whether they would likely move away from the Bay Area, and 46 percent agreed, a significant jump from last year.

Some residents are not surprised by the poll's findings.

"Where can you find homes that are less than a million now (in the Bay Area)?" San Francisco resident Ted Heca Oili said.

Again, no surprise:

"For those resident who said they would likely to move, 61 percent indicated they would move out of state, the poll shows."

I think it’s ironic. The rich in the Bay Area all seem so sympathetic to the poor. So much so they provide public transportation for them so they have to come in to SF to work! Wouldn’t want “them” actually living there!

True but we are talking about the Bay Area.....I think we would be safe to say 80% of the Bay Area created their own prison....

If that were true, why don't they leave?

Did you read the article? People want to leave because it's too expensive.

If it's "hell", why are real estate prices so high?

No, the market has dictated home prices.

San Francisco occupies a small physical area, and therefore has a limited amount of real estate - period. If enough people want to occupy that limited amount of real estate, the prices go up.

In San Francisco, enough people want to live there that the average home price is above $1 million dollars - and those houses are still selling.

San Francisco is a socialist world of piss and shit... fact

Yep. 4 Bedrooms, 4 Baths, 3,000 sq. ft, in a very desirable place to live.

That's how the market works.

"What’s missing? The 90-minute, 15-mile commute; the 14% income tax; 4-figure monthly utility bills; and the $1M+ price of entry on real estate, earning you the right to pay absurd property taxes."

Market forces are in play but when you have regulation just for regulation sake you get higher construction costs...get in a plane and fly over the San Francisco and Sacramento area...you will see more empty land then you would believe...just sitting there waiting for a brush fire....restrictions on development in California are punitive.....its a one party state...the dems run everything...poorly

We have a very different idea of a "very desirable place to live".

$2.3 mill, in most places around the country, would get you a castle and 100 acres. I'll take the land, over a shoe-horned in McMansion.
