Can someone tell me why entire west of interstate 280 is empty and not opened up for housing ? Why is that there are only 3 bridges crossing the bay and not 10 ?
It puzzles me why housing of any kind be expensive in bay area. There is like ton of free land there.
- gamblor956 7y agoThose are the Santa Cruz mountains. They already house many parks, and small residential enclaves. However, In today's wildfire-prone climate, it is extremely unlikely insurers would ever offer policies for residences built there as the mountains are heavily forested and quite rugged.
