I was pushed out of the Bay Area by people moving in, which jacked up the prices. Those people who CHOOSE to move to the Bay Area and FORCE people out of the communities that they grew up in are the IMMORAL people (see how nebulous the moral impact your choices have on others can be?). Those people that purchase houses at more that 5% of the homes previous sale price are immoral, driving up the prices of homes with their wealth. So many immoral people in the Bay Area, but the grandmother that moved into a community once filled with cherry and apple orchards that are now clone homes and is just trying to maintain something of the community she put her life savings into living in is not, actually, a monster.
