How about the high growth areas of the country? Denver? Salt Lake? Charlotte? Raleigh-Durham? The non-trailer trash parts of Florida? New York City? Boston? DC?
I'll concede DC only because of the government jobs. Boston falls under NY (which I mentioned) since they're close together (somewhat). Miami has a weak economy only supported by tourism.
How come I never ever ever see people making a connection between illegal immigration and the rent is too damn high? All the political angst over illegals and nobody is connecting them to astronomical rents?
To date I have seen exactly one other person - an investment blogger - make the connection.

Where I live in Denver metro area, median home prices is $320k. I don't think I'll ever own a home with what they're building out here. Everything is priced high, they only build luxury homes and only upper middle class people can afford them. Can't wait to move out of this state.
I've been to the Central Valley. I've seen the condition of America's heartland.
You've been to the whole central valley have you? And you did what when you were there? Were you here for a detailed economic and demographic analysis of the area or were you driving through part of a state in the heartland and saw a closed factory?
Moving from the Bay Area to Alabama/The Midwest is not the same as coming to the US on the Mayflower.
Funny you should mention this.
I lady I worked with 26 years retired and they sold their mobile home in the SF Bay Area and were able to buy a 10 year old brick home in Alabama on 2+ acres with a shop and pool...
It will soon be 2 years... while she likes the house... she is desperate to come back to the Bay Area... her husband has family in Alabama and has settled in... I don't how she can come back... the mobile home they sold two years ago is a lot more expensive today... she is 58 and having a hard time finding work and has been told she had a California accent.

Most conservatives are not constrained by notions of political correctness, yet nary a peep from them.
Well they want the cheap labor.
