Rents in San Diego county have been going crazy the past couple of years. It’s as if we’re trying to catch up to San Francisco or something.
The bottom line, and few want to hear this, is that we need to design (or redesign) our cities for high population densities, and that means mass transit (a very unAmerican thing.)
I get that from my sister. “Well, you live in such a conservative area, why don’t you just move someplace like where I live?” (Burbank, Calif.)
Well, on a fixed disability income, places like Burbank are right out. In last night’s planning commission report, my wife presented a “plan to make a plan for a plan” (as she put it) detailing some of the demographic information of the village.
Of note, where the average cost of living in the USA equals 1.00, my town equals 0.71.
That difference is one of the big reasons I live here.
