And here I was just commenting on how huge population centers freak me out, and now there's even more of you sons of bitches?! Half of you people weren't here when I was born! Go home or something, get off my lawn.
Every once in awhile I see things about how people are fleeing the city or the state and im like. How are prices still going up when new and denser buildings keep on going up? Somehow everyone is leaving but we keep on filling the increasing supply of housing and its not like homelessness has gone down.
Some are leaving, but even more are arriving?
my guess is any year with a drop certain politicians play it up like its the apocalypse.
