I mean, this is a huge country and you're focused on the city with the most overinflated housing market. My guess is they would move almost anywhere else in the country and buy a house just fine.

Again, this is a choice (and a bad one at that). Most people aren't dumb enough to saddle themselves with that much debt.
- MomoXenosaga 4y agoThe countryside filled with conservative yokels and low paying jobs? Cities are attractive for a reason. My brother is a homosexual artsy type and he is now working his ass off to pay the mortgage but there is no way he wants to come back to his home-town.
- yucky 4y agoIs everything that isn't San Fran/Austin/Seattle/LA/NY a rural backwater in your mind?
- hello_moto 4y agoDo you think other cities would have more open minded and welcoming (of his brother's life choice) population than the ones you listed? For pete sake y'all vote for Trump...
- yucky 4y agoThat's a braindead take. Not only were there hundreds of other cities that didn't vote for Trump, but getting along with people who may have different viewpoints on things is what diversity is all about. What's wrong with diversity?
- throw0101c 4y ago> My guess is they would move almost anywhere else in the country and buy a house just fine. So to buy a house just leave your family and friends and the community you grew up in and that has deep personal meaning to you. Is that all?
- yucky 4y agoThis is an odd question. Is every child of every wealthy family entitled to buy their own expensive house in the same neighborhood? How exactly would that work in real life?
- spacemadness 4y agoIn this case you’re talking about moving out of state, not a different neighborhood.
- yucky 4y agoNo, I specifically said city.
- spacemadness 4y agoRight, and that won’t cut it in many areas of California.
- yucky 4y agoOK. It still sounds like you're making an argument that people are entitled to own their own home in a specific place just because they have family there, so how would that work in real life?
