There are not enough homes in all the Kansas Cities in the country to make that a universal solution. Instead of $1M homes in SF and $200k in KC, you end up with $800k homes everywhere.
On top of that, what you save financially you frequently pay for in other ways. Communities and services that can be found in large cities simply don't exist in smaller and midwest areas.
- liketochill 4y agoThere are probably 100 cities in the fly over states just like KC. I live in a small town because I could not afford the big city near by. Life is full of compromises, not living in the most expensive city in the country shouldn’t be considered a hardship.

For many of us, the culture of smaller cities and increasingly even the laws of entire states represent an existential threat, or an existential threat to our loved ones. That is much more than a "hardship."
- liketochill 4y agoCan you explain what the existential threat in an entire state or a small town is that requires people to live in the most expensive and desireable cities?
