Its just that the poor folks in CA live in $300,000 houses, trying to make the payments, where the poor folks in red states live in $25,000 trailer homes, scraping by.

People have known this for years.

Anyone actually every try to rent an apartment in SF, or LA?

If you make under $50,000 in California, you simply cannot survive unless you live in the central valley or high desert.

For my lifestyle I would need 500k to a 1 a million salary in LA maybe 1.5 mil. I could not live for less than 500k with the cost of living even in Miami Beach I need 400k to survive. The housing is so expensive in LA and Southern California and Northern California as well
