My own company is creating the newer positions out of san diego as it is not sustainable for engineers to live here in san diego.
Home prices would drop for sure in san diego, it’s a matter of time..

My other friend working in Toyota mentioned me that Toyota is also moving out of Irvine to Plano/TX..[/quote]Yeah I hear the doomsday predictions on CA all the time. Folks quote stats like that. What they don’t quote are the jobs being created.
Another thing: if folks were leaving in droves, why aren’t home prices dropping? Makes no sense.
Re: Texas
Find it hard to swallow that things are better in TX than here.
The point of my including the link isn’t the racial angle. It is the following quotes;
“I’ve lived in Austin for 23 years,” another wrote. “There used to be neighborhoods and lofts and warehouses for poor artists, punks, poor minorities … As it is, the neighborhoods have been overpriced. Either we’re cleaning your toilets and driving in from Buda, or we live somewhere in Austin and half our salary goes to rent! How is it that Adam Reposa is taking static for pointing that fact out?”
“Why I did it is pretty clear,” a shirtless Reposa says in the video, “because it would be obvious that even though people know the real problem — and the problem is people without money are getting f—-d — they’re getting pushed out, and pretty quick.”
Wow…that’s Texas…sounds like what the doomsdayers say about San Diego…[/quote]
Anywhere you have high paying Tech Jobs (or other finance Jobs etc..) you start to see this dichotomy.
(Minimum wage need to be about twice what it is just to catch up in these places).
There was quite a bit of poverty in Austin when last I was there (Not as great a place they try to make it out to be).

“Paced by job growth in the high-paying scientific fields, the county’s unemployment rate has dropped two percentage points since March 2014K, the California Employment Development Department reported Friday…

Over the year, most of the job gains occurred via 9,100 new positions in professional, scientific and technical services, good for 7.2 percent growth. ”You know sometimes reality is often different than one’s ideology.
April 20, 2015 at 11:18 AM #785004AnonymousGuestOn the One Paseo topic, it isn’t an issue about whether some thing gets built or not. Something will be built and economic development will happen. It is a question of how large the project will be and the negative impacts the project will have not only on the local community but SD at large.
