Yes. Droves of workers who got laid off and graduates who can't find a job. It's impossible to remain in the tech hubs without a job given how incredibly expensive the rent is. The average HN commenters at a comfortable FANG really don't grasp how bad the situation is for the rest of the people.
- fossuser 6y agoEven many of those at a comfortable FANG still live with roommates in shared housing and have no hope of buying a house on the peninsula where the median price is approaching $3M. The anti-housing people are mostly locals that bought their house for $300k 20yrs ago and pay no property tax on its new value due to prop13.
