Most people don’t exactly have a choice. They kinda need places to live near their jobs which almost always dictate where they live.
Also, appreciate the value of ownership? How do you expect almost anyone in Gen Z to afford to own anything more substantial than a car? The oldest of us are just starting our professions after getting out of college/trade school, and getting into jobs that don’t pay enough to afford a house anytime soon. We never even had the option of ownership because housing is fucked.
Hell I’m one of the lucky ones. I graduated college without debt and I make really good money, but it’s gonna take me 5 years to save up a down payment for a $8k a month mortgage despite living well below my means. I can only imagine how fucked it is for the average person who will never have the chance to own anything at all.
