You are interpreting a lot into a very short comment, presumably based on your own preferences. Some people don't mind commuting or even enjoy it, some people prefer living in a decently sized apartment in a city instead of a single fa

The fall is abrupt, but not at all surprising. Imho, the data isn’t really sufficient to lead to the conclusion that the job market is crashing. First of all, judging by the overview chart the decline is steep, but it is currently roughly w
