I think a lot of it is that there's been a fundamental shift in where people can live and want to live. They are mobile/remote now, and they're looking to flee crime, taxes, and policies in cities and states that used to have them tethered due to their job.


No one who can work from home is moving to overcongested, overtrafficed suburbs of West Houston.

Yep.

This idea that mobility and working from home is causing movement to the suburbs is asinine.

that talking point is so overstated

Take the % of Americans who actually work office/white collar jobs

Then take the % of those jobs that are able to work from home

Then, what companies are allowing it, permanently

Then, how many of those people are actually going to uproot their life and move. I think this is much less common than this board would have you think, especially for people with kids
