SF is not really caused too much by gentrification. It's just a huge clusterfuck.

Big cities are so dumb.

Why LIVE in the city? Just go to work there and spend the extra 30 minutes a day driving back and forth while you live in a suburb as a middle class person at the same income.

There's lots of factors, but the most important factor for NYC at least, is that the suburbs cost more than the citiy. In very far off directions, to the point it's very hard to commute. Especially when figuring in that NYC has one of the worst traffic in the world.


Another big difference between California and eastern metros is that California built up based on car and retroactively put in rail like BART

That implies yoog differences in price for close in suburbs vs far out exurbs

That's why the Sunbelt metros are usually the preferred comparison with respect to affordability
