Zeeak4444 08/20/19 4:58:39 AM #94:	Squall28 posted... furb posted... Lets all just move where it is cheaper. Full proof. I bet the rent stays cheap once everybody moves there too! It's not going to just all of a sudden going to be full city price in cheap areas. It's a balancing act. One side slowly goes up, and the other goes down. They're not going to just both go up due to this population flow. (It will still go up due to natural house appreciation and inflation obviously though). Also, there's just too many people who crave crowds. I still can never wrap my head around why people love places that are packed with people. But likewise I cant wrap my head around being isolated all the time.
