Don’t count this possibility out. Suppose for a second that your are correct that work from home is a temporary thing. People who have moved here and then are told they have to report back to an office in LA or Silicon Valley. What do they do? You seem to assume they move back. I on the other hand assume they quit and start their own companies here in SD. Some of these companies will fail, but some will succeed. We could have the next Google, or Facebook, or Apple, here in SD. There is no reason those types of companies have to be in Silicon Valley.[/quote]
Exactly. Or two kids in a dorm at UCSD come up with the next tech unicorn. There are so many possible paths to this happening here. Not just one
And skateboarding is blowing up worldwide. The epicenter of talent and industry is right here in Encinitas. One more log on the fire[/quote]
UCSD is drastically different today than it was 20 years ago much less 40-50 years ago when it was founded. Same goes for SDSU. Biotech is huge here and San Diego is one of the top locations in the nation for that industry. Bioengineering at UCSD is one of the top programs in the nation. UCSD’s other engineering disciplines are top notched as well. So, I wouldn’t count out what you’re saying as a possibility.
