I believe you, but why can’t they move? Don’t want to lose a low rate mortgage? The spouse has a job?

“I believe you, but why can’t they move? Don’t want to lose a low rate mortgage? The spouse has a job?”

1. The workforce is older
2 two income households are normal and often 50/50 on income
3. Moving is increasingly expensive
4. “Unexpected” costs in moving can be shockingly expensive, many people have no real safety net
5. How many jobs are available to the middle non executive class where you can be certain of your employment more than three months from now?

IDK how any of these things can be fixed in less than a generation, never mind, in two years.
