I read not long ago that like a third of houses purchased in the US today are never occupied by the purchasing entity. That’s an insane number.

I get why it’s hard for people who have kids, but I’ve never once not felt like I was living the dream and extremely privileged to be able to work from home now.

The average housing budget for out-of-towners moving to Nashville was $720K, ~50% higher than locals’ $485K budget. It used to be coastal elites who worried that every adult in the family had to win a career lottery, just to afford a home. Now that feeling may spread.

That is fucking horrifying.
