Yes, my moderate friend was talking about this—she knows someone who’s daughter moved there...parents had to go there to help her get an apartment, and my daughter’s friend had hard time upgrading. My son has noted same thing in San Jose. I read an article yesterday about the fact that apartment rates have gone up substantially—as I seem to recall it is because people can’t afford homes....
