Definitely true for any mid to large size city anywhere in the west of the US as well. Not quite $1.5M bad, but even if you’re making a hefty $100k as a young person in tech (way above normal salaries for these areas), saving towards a $500k starter house is a very hard ask on top of paying off student debt and rent. If you don’t have existing equity or an abnormally large salary, you’re screwed.
