My son rented a shed in someone’s yard last summer in Palo Alto for $1300. He was a college intern (with a $1700 housing allowance) so it wasn’t a step down from the fraterntity and he came out ahead.

I find it hard to believe that zoning laws would allow this. Also it seems to me the company should be paying the going per diem rate for the area.

He got a bargain. Palo Alto rents and home prices have gotten absurdly high. Demand exceeds supply, and the powers that be will not allow supply to increase.
