Is it not also reliant on an affluent customer base that can pay high prices for services? In poorer communities are trade jobs lucrative? Obviously in places like the Bay Area they are VERY lucrative, but is that a sustainable narrative to re-tool the economy around?

Some of this requires a license, all of this requires training and experience which only time and practice can give. Opportunities for that are also somehow limited.
