The metro areas will still be where the jobs are, and people will have to move there.

Has anybody ever had a hit with “Iowa Dreaming” or “I Wish They All Could Be Iowa Girls”?

Because my son is going to school in Iowa, I’ve gotten to visit Des Moines a few times. I will tell you, that is a beautiful area of the country, Des Moines is a beautiful city, and there is plenty of area to put businesses, houses and schools in.

Not sure if the cost will be cheaper if suddenly all these rust belters demand “higher minimum wage”.

I’m thinking of things like cost of land, cost of living, etc. A $250K in Des Moines is probably 3000 sq ft. (just basing that on costs here in the DFW area, which are slightly more expensive).
