I wouldn’t say San Jose, a place where single family homes typically cost in excess of $750000, is a depressed enclave where very many Americans live on welfare and social security.

Not now - but in 1955 when IBM was locating there it was a small town in the middle of prune orchards.

And don’t confuse San Jose city today with the more expensive suburbs that have grown up around the Silicon Valley busineses.
