Naive view here, but isn't this an indication that the job is not paying enough for the location?
- B2B_human 5y agoNot naive, you just didn't read the article fully? It doesn't matter how much you're paying people - they can't find a place to live here. The CFO of company here has had to move to Arizona recently and works remotely now. I live in Truckee and this isn't just affecting temporary workers or low-paid workers. This isn't even the "well it's gonna be $3500 for a one bedroom like SF, so I'll pay up". people simply can't find places in a reasonable pricing band. Then, when they find it - the owners sell it next year and the search begins again. Anybody without a house is in a vulnerable state in this economy IMO.
