Agree the most desirable parts of CA are fast becoming out of reach for
many–including young people who were raised here.
One motivating force wrt to some families we have known who have relocated to less expensive locales has revolved around the fact that their children, although well positioned from an educational perspective, etc., could no longer achieve the level of success they desired as far as jobs, housing, etc. (the whole package) in CA, so it’s clear this issue can affect families across all economic strata.
