the availability of housing in mountain view has exactly zero impact on the availability of housing in SF. SF is a hip urban city while Mtn View is a suburban community. If you're priced out of housing in mtn view then you're definitely not moving to SF. If you can afford to live in SF, then you live there because you want to and not because you couldn't find a place in mtn view.

SF does not feel the ripple from mountain view!!!!! stop being illogical!!!!! you're saying that if the price of a honda accord went up $2k it would drive people to buy a lexus.

what facts are coming out of my ass? I can't believe I've been downvoted in this thread even though I'm the only one making sense. I've forgotten the point of this whole conversation anyway.

Look. The summary makes a false equivocation. "goog tried to build housing in mtn view and they wouldn't let them, so where are people to go? they have to go to san francisco!". false false false.

the housing crisis in san francisco has nothing to do with the ability to build new projects in mtn view. san francisco is a hip urban city, while mtn view is a suburban community. You can buy houses in mtn view for OM less than it would cost in SF. so compared to availability in SF, there are still plenty of available places on the peninsula or elsewhere in the bay.

what you're effectively saying is, "honda raised the price of an accord by $2k, so now I have to buy a lexus!"

mod me down now, bitches! after I just owned everybody with my logic and oratory.
