I think, in the long run, relying on coastal cities to absorb everyone is not going to be a sustainable option. Right now, something like 40% of the US population lives in a coastal county, and that percentage is increasing. Meanwhile, environmental and infrastructure pressures on those areas are also going to be increasing. Transit systems are breaking down, water systems are overloaded, highways are overloaded. Everyone says, build more housing, but they don't want to pay for the the resources that housing will require. That is not going to work.
