Er... In Southern California they built up the Inland Empire, Riverside and San Bernardino all the way out into the deserts. Now, few can afford to live there, due to the expensive commutes into Orange County and LA as so expensive. Not to mention the traffic.

People living in those areas are being beat like a drum over these fuel prices, and now all prices.

Those suburbs on the coastal plain, surrounding OC and LA, are much better off.

I really feel for those that bought way inland in the past 15 years or so. Most of those that did it, just wanted an affordable home. If these fuel prices continue, they'll be left twisting in the wind.

Perhaps jobs will come to them. Why is it necessary for information workers to physically commute long distances to central cities?
