Only about 40% were college educated or in tech&amp;#x2F;programming oriented roles. Of those, a small amount has ridden the wave to prosperity. Most moved to Seattle (if looking for a career&amp;#x2F;home&amp;#x2F;etc), or Portland (if they pass the weird-test).  There&amp;#x27;s been a steady trickle out of the Bay for anyone not in tech for the past decade, and now I think only 10% of them still remain. Now they&amp;#x27;re going to Colorado rather than Seattle, and a few more to Portland. Those that are currently missing the wave in Seattle are looking at moving to Colorado.&lt;p&gt;I have no idea which area is gonna be next - Colorado is now seen as the last &amp;quot;cool&amp;quot; place thats &amp;quot;affordable&amp;quot; and liberal (sorry screaming Coloradan&amp;#x27;s, you&amp;#x27;re next).&lt;p&gt;Personally, I just can&amp;#x27;t believe its gone on this long - the pressure release valve that I thought would be released from the bay every year for the last decade hasn&amp;#x27;t fully let go. Career or being able to afford a house seem to be mutually exclusive ideas if you&amp;#x27;re not in programming. This is creating a rather nomadic culture within my friend groups... welp, this area is too expensive, might as well move onto the next. Very few are putting down roots.&lt;p&gt;I wonder what this all will look like when we look back 20 years hence - was it really a bubble, or the creation of a permanent Elysium style class divide between those that had the capital (or took the risks) early, and those who didn&amp;#x27;t start out as well (or were conservative in leveraging themselves)? Every day it feels like I&amp;#x27;m leading more towards the latter.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Home Values Are Rising by $800 a Day in San Jose</title><url>https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-04-09/home-values-are-rising-by-800-a-day-in-san-jose</url></story>
