There was an article floating around earlier this week that goes into the numbers of this: https://priceonomics.com/the-places-in-america-where-all-you...

So you're claiming studios are $6000 and 1BR's are $9000? You can get a 1000 sqft for < $3000 within a 1 hour commute of SOMA.

A 1 hour commute costs you 2 hours a day. That's almost like working an extra 7 weeks a year with lower productivity and increased wear and tear on you.

who's debating that?

2 hours is about how long I spend at the gym every day and I'd hate to give that time up.

If you're spending more than ~50 minutes at the gym you're doing something wrong.

What a deal!

When you can make $200k straight out of undergrad, yes, it is.

Rents in San Francisco are very high -- high enough, in fact, that this silly, obviously-false hyperbole is unnecessary.
